“I want every young woman to know there’s a place for you in America if you are pro-life, if you embrace your religion, and you follow traditional family structure.”

Let’s be clear: Lindsey Graham & GOP want cis white women to have more white babies

Graham is the head of the Senate Judiciary Committee & wants white women to be like #AmyConeyBarrett. Another senator on the committee wanted to know - during Barrett’s confirmation hearing - who did the laundry in her house. Babies and laundry
#AmyConeyBarrett is a mediocre judge who was elevated because she’s a white mother of school-aged children who will do white supremacist patriarchy’s bidding in a country that hates mothers and children who are not white.
How richly hypocritical that in the middle of a pandemic, the administration that’s done so little for mothers of school-aged children, esp Black & women of colour, who are being pumelled by triple work loads, demands we celebrate a privileged white mother of school-aged children
How cruel - the ultimate adjective of Trump era - that the administration that insists we celebrate that Barrett is a mother of school-aged children is same administration that has ripped apart migrant mothers from their school-aged children in concentration camps at the border.
