oh but there's this: “There’s an old definition of abuse of power: rules for thee but not for me,” Representative Kevin McCarthy of California, the Republican leader, said, repeating the phrase over and over.

so much for adoration based on use of Quaker words.

…but speaking of her - I’m very unimpressed by the rush I see, in not for profits, to embrace all things “intersectional” — it seems to me to lead to siloing. And it might be good to understand better how a biracial (Black/south Asian) woman is supposed to cope with that pressure on her identity. I don’t mean to diss Kimberle Crenshaw, but maybe this is another intellectual construct that (like CRT) can wreak havoc where over-applied/half-understood.

CRT is not overly applied.

Perhaps not but I think it’s often not well understood.
