"It's Not Too Early to Say Thank You"

"Don't let the pundits distract you from the numbers. As Democrats eke out slim victories in new battleground states like Georgia and Pennsylvania, Black women have made all the difference. Exit polls report that more than 90 percent of Black women cast their ballots for Biden and Harris, voting as a bloc. Their nearest rivals in 2020 are Black men, 80 percent of whom supported the Democratic ticket, making Black women's impact unparalleled."

Martha S. Jones at Talking Points Memo credits black women for Donald Trump's defeat.

But Musa al-Gharbi at NBC News warns readers that "people from historically marginalized or disadvantaged groups often hold very negative opinions of people from other minority populations—and do not seem to approach social issues in intersectional terms."
