And now for a moment of clarity.

Look.

Oh, she's going to singing, y'all.

I mean, I'll have to keep them crying.

Alicia, she wore the white today, so it's...

You know, I'm trying to wheel myself into like...

I'm impressed that she's here honestly I mean to be I

mean honestly I mean we didn't talk about this part but obviously I in my former

life I spent a very long time in democratic politics you know in when there were

usually not the people at the top were men, and they were all white men.

And then over the course of years, it has changed.

You know, the men became, there were people of color, black people, brown people that came into the rooms, and women that came into the room.

And I worked for the vice president.

So to watch her concede the election to someone who is not nearly as qualified as her, but someone whom millions of people voted for,

it was like, I felt like those, the sentiments in that New York Times piece from Maya and Erica Green that you meant that you put up on the screen, Alicia.

I felt that. Like, if they're not, if, if it's like America

it kind of feels like a rejection in some sense. But then also, I think about the positivity

that I brought a couple blocks over, many other people, many people did vote for her. She got

70 million, like millions of people voted for her. But it wasn't enough and so it makes me and then to

watch on not just our network with others if i'm to be honest people the days after the election

say well yeah it's time to stop stop putting up women and black people i'm like oh my okay i need a minute

but i'm happy to be here today so Yeah, that last part is just stupid.
