Mike Pence is winning decisively. Kamala Harris comes across as condescending, bitter, and angry.

Hard to express my joy and gratitude right now as I completed my Philosophy, Politics and Economics degree at Oxford. I don’t know what’s ahead. For now, it will be Netflix, reading and sleep. 😴

... And that being a woman can be easily used to your advantage to get jobs. Didn't want to believe someone would say this, until i was told this myself... 😶 Now, imagine being a woman of colour!

This is just one example of what our black colleagues deal with while being #BlackintheIvory. It's racist & ignorant. Let's educate ourselves by unlearning the racist ideals we've grown up with. #blackinstem #pocinstem #blackandstem #EDI
