I’m so tired of hearing people say, “we aren’t ready…no one will vote for a black woman…etc” Why? People are projecting. We helped build it - we can lead it !!
Whew this conversation was everything! Margo, you preached today and the way it landed gave me chills! You are coming to the cookout and can even bring bone broth! ❤
I haven't felt this feeling since President Obama! I am happy and excited. A woman President who represents my culture. Why not? The time is now....plus she is my SOROR! 💗💚💗. Respect to Joe Biden for putting our country first.
Love this commentary. Please unpack women of color in leadership and their “likability”. I have to be honest, I was blown away by all of the chaos her nomination caused, especially around black men.
You better preach and I LOVE this podcast! I'm in IT so I deal with it EVERY day! I would rather be RESPECTED than LIKED. I have also heard rumors of VP Harris being "difficult" but how much is it that people cannot handle reporting to a black women. I know the code words because if you are a woman and you speak your mind you are labeled "difficult" but if a man does the same he is labeled as "someone who takes charge"........ In my opinion, the decision is between VP Harris and Trump. How many people quit the Trump administration? He basically had a revolving door! And his own VP will not vote for him. In addition, I will never vote for a sexual abuser and convicted felon.
I’m so glad I am watching this and not just listening via podcast apps. I fo sure am here for Tashira’s facial expressions 7:12-8:12 esp the head nod and “tell it girl” pursed lips
I am watching this a day after it was posted, however I can't help but ask, MArgo are you ok? I get the indication there is either discomfort or pain, Please take care of yourself because WE need you.
I think President Obama, not coming out immediately and supporting Vice President Harris, is giving President Biden the respect he deserves and also a very professional approach because President Biden would appear like a "lame duck". Waiting until the DNC would be a great time for his support. With President Obama and President Biden, together, supporting Vice President Harris, in front of the American people, would solidify the Democratic Party.
Why is it that when a black woman runs, her qualifications come into question. I have never heard anyone talk about Trump's qualifications. I guess being a failed budiness man id what we need. Same thing happened when Judge Ketanji Brown-Jackson was nominated. She is the most qualified judge on the court.
Most men are intimidated by women with power and not just in the political sphere. It’s hard to find men who see most women as their equals especially women who present as intelligent . I have found a way to cycle around this other than to dumb down for acceptance which I haven’t learned to do. That kept me from getting seated at many tables although used for thoughts vision and ideas by others.
Vice President Harris and I are both Black & Indian, but we look so different. This election cycle is so different from anything we have seen here in the US, and even though I am not a voter, because I am not an American, even I know that it is important for everyone to go out and register and vote. I believe that Harris is the best choice, and she is brilliantly positioned to make a tremendous difference in this country that will last generations. Thank you ladies for this conversation. I love you ladies.
As always well done. This is the movement we needed for this election. The number of white women who vote for Trump and the number of Black men who do not vote is alarming. But we can get it done. We need more Margos! 💕
THIS IS A CALL TO ACTION: Don't just vote, get active! Democracy is not going to save itself. CHECK YOUR VOTER'S REGISTRATION, help people get registered, know your local candidates by name, Volunteer, We NEED poll workers, reach out to friends and families, talk to them about what's important, VOTE EARLY, and VOTE BLUE. Madam President has a nice ring to it. 🇺🇸 💙
You’d think her biracial status would make her more appealing to both sides. Not necessarily the benefit it could be! Look at Amber Rose’s biracial definition, unlike Kamala’s who leans more toward black culture in my opinion.
I was excited for Obama being the 1st black man to become president. As far as Kamala, the only thing that I am excited about is that she is a woman because that in itself is different. Especially since she is also the 1st black female or just female vice president ever. Her being black does nothing for me because we been there and done that. Even though she is my kind color wise, I am excited that she is female like me 😊
The Obama thing has me remembering that he had some sexist behaviors with both Hillary and Kamala, he had to walk back some comment about focusing on her looks. He will endorse her, but the foot dragging is problematic.
Let's normalize female Prime Ministers and Presidents.... Theresa May-UK; Katalin Novak-Hungary; Sheikh Hasima-Bangladesh; Katrin Jakobsdottir -Iceland; Silveria E. Jacobs-St. Maarten; Evelyn Weaver-Croes of Aruba. Why not add Kamal Harris of the United States of America?
I love y’all but I am bitterly bitterly disappointed in how you two have bought into the whole misogynoir argument regarding the VP likability. That’s a white supremacist talking point. Not True, Not True, Not True. w/Love. Peace.
So the comment that Margo stated" You don't have to work for her" I am taking this out of context. We have to work for her, if she becomes the President. As much as she works for us and the good of this country. We all vote for who we like. But I think a better thought is "People don't like Trump" yet they are still willing to vote for him and his "Pola-Tricks". What are we to do?
Shalom, WAKE THAT MIND Up! Thanks for sharing, we must Vote for the polices that will benefit us. Get educated on the polices, Donald Trump's Project 2025 is not favorable to Women or Men young or old and people of color.
Definitely feeling optimistic. But as a Black American woman, my concern is that with Kamala as POTUS, the issues will be focused on women’s issues as a whole- and nothing that addresses obstacles facing Black women. In other words, reproductive rights (which are definitely top of the list) will be the main focus concerning women, because it involves Whife women. But there will be zero convo about racist sexism that targets Black women in healthcare, law enforcement, etc.
This is such an important conversation. Past November the enthusiasm has to continue. After Obama’s first inaugural we definitely fumbled the bag and allowed the loss of the house which hobbled him. In order to secure and bolster her administration we will need to regain house and maintain the senate.
I’m so tired of hearing people say, “we aren’t ready…no one will vote for a black woman…etc” Why? People are projecting. We helped build it - we can lead it !!
It’s GO Time!!!!🎉🎉🎉
Im feeling….FEELINGS! I think this is excitement!?!?! Haven’t felt this way in so long I’m not sure 😂
I love how realistic Margo is. You two are gold! "We don't need to be prisoners of precedence."
Feeling like I’m getting a refund of something that wasn’t expected. But very hopeful
We need more Margos because the clarity ….. top tier!
wow, thank you!
Whew this conversation was everything! Margo, you preached today and the way it landed gave me chills! You are coming to the cookout and can even bring bone broth! ❤
Heavy on the bone broth! lololol
So glad!
That’s something to think about. Voting for your kids
Margo went off 🗣️🗣️ say it
Yep!
I see a woman representing every American male and female . A woman who understands what it takes to nurture, to Lead because she’s fierce.
Wow, interesting conversation ladies.🔥
Thank you!
I haven't felt this feeling since President Obama! I am happy and excited. A woman President who represents my culture. Why not? The time is now....plus she is my SOROR! 💗💚💗. Respect to Joe Biden for putting our country first.
So true. Hope is contagious.
OMG just realised that I hadn't subscribed 🙈
I fixed that
Love you ladies and I share your stuff with all of my friends and family ❤
Thank you!
thank you!!
Love this commentary. Please unpack women of color in leadership and their “likability”. I have to be honest, I was blown away by all of the chaos her nomination caused, especially around black men.
likeability and being "dynamic" applies differently to anyone who is not a man. i have always said that

This was so great, and I think we should be as vocal as we can to really emphasize what’s at risk here
I’m feeling excited 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Thanks for watching!!
I’m in a swing state VA and I’m ready 🥰💯
I’m feeling ready to go✊🏾
Same!
I’m so glad I am watching this and not just listening via podcast apps. I fo sure am here for Tashira’s facial expressions 7:12-8:12 esp the head nod and “tell it girl” pursed lips
Thank you!
I feel “ mixed emotions, “ I’m not sure Vice-President Harris is ready to be President of the United States.
I am watching this a day after it was posted, however I can't help but ask, MArgo are you ok? I get the indication there is either discomfort or pain, Please take care of yourself because WE need you.
I AM EXCITED. I DONATED. I AM GOING TO VOLUNTEER/ DOING EVERYTHING I CAN IN MY POWER TO WIN. AND YES I AM SCREAMING. Lol
ME TOOO
I did too… lol I tried to go to bed without donating and couldn’t do it 😂

Good point, thanks for sharing

Tashira said exactly what I have been thinking.
We here in the UK are relying on you 'not fumbling the bag' your vote matters to the world
Thanks so much for watching! We love our friends across the pond!! :)
"NO ONE LIKES WOMEN THAT HAS POWER" MIC DROP!!!
Most men are intimidated by women with power and not just in the political sphere. It’s hard to find men who see most women as their equals especially women who present as intelligent . I have found a way to cycle around this other than to dumb down for acceptance which I haven’t learned to do. That kept me from getting seated at many tables although used for thoughts vision and ideas by others.

I love you ladies.
The question is, will more people net, net show up to vote. We can’t afford to lose, -2025 is a horror show.
I’m a Boomer and I tell my friends that we have not done a good job of educating the the generations after us.
As always well done. This is the movement we needed for this election. The number of white women who vote for Trump and the number of Black men who do not vote is alarming. But we can get it done. We need more Margos! 💕
Next Kamala Harris T/shirt “ KEEP IT MOVING “
👍
🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Thoroughly enjoyed! I love, "A vote for Donald Trump is a vote against your children."
👍🏽

The construct of race and sex is so destructive and pointless. Let's get out there and vote to TRY to save democracy! Thank you both for all you do. ❤

"A vote for Trump is a vote against your children" - mic 🎤 drop!!!!
How?
@@eLLBdotmusiche rolled back Environmental protections, reproductive rights (Republicans blocked IVF), banning books and history being taught, etc.
Let's normalize female Prime Ministers and Presidents.... Theresa May-UK; Katalin Novak-Hungary; Sheikh Hasima-Bangladesh; Katrin Jakobsdottir -Iceland; Silveria E. Jacobs-St. Maarten; Evelyn Weaver-Croes of Aruba. Why not add Kamal Harris of the United States of America?
