During the latest episode of MSNBC’s The Cross
Connection with Tiffany Cross, guest panelist Errin Haines complained
that "White men" continue to block women’s "access to the ballot and our
liberty as citizens."
The segment began with Cross noting it's been "103 years since Congress passed the 19th amendment"
on June 4, 1919, although the amendment that gave women the right to
vote wasn't ratified by the states until the following year.
In
light of that, she asked Haines, an MSNBC contribu
tor and
editor-at-large for the feminist website The 19th, "What would you say
is the biggest challenge facing women today?"
Haines prefaced her
answer with the statement that Cross' overview of the history of the
19th amendment shows there is "still unfinished work in our democracy
and our society."
She minced no words, telling the MSNBC host that "White men" are the biggest threat facing women today:
"103
years after the passage of the 19th amendment in the Senate, the
challenge and, frankly, the threat is the White men who have had a
monopoly on our society, our democracy, and our country, who continue to
block our access to the ballot and our liberty as citizens, as women
and everything that comes with it."
Haines said men have "always enjoyed" those "same freedoms" without ever having to "earn" them through amendments to the Constitution.
"And while it’s fine for people to share something when you don’t think
it’s going to cost you anything. When people feel like they are losing
something that belongs to them, particularly power, everybody else watch
out," Haines stated, implying that White men will do a lot to maintain
their grip on power.
Though Haines claimed that it’s women who are the majority in America
and that’s why White male politics is so oppressive, saying, "Women are
the majority of the population today, the majority of the electorate,
and yet minority rule is still keeping a playing filed uneven across
this country."
"That is leaving women, the women that I talk to, the voters that I talk to, feeling less free and less fair," Haines declared.
She
admitted that "women vote," but claimed women still aren’t equal to the
White male minority because, "They are fighting for a better place –
workplace on the other side of a pandemic. They are still protesting gun violence that is killing their children, killing their parents, and grandparents. They’re searching desperately for baby formula."
Haines also mentioned women’s access to abortion,
stating, "They’re fighting to keep reproductive access that gives them
the ability to make decisions about their own health and bodies." She
mentioned that women are "still pushing for equal pay," and reiterated
that women "still do not have equal representation politically in this
country. We’re half the population, again, half the democracy, yet there
are only 24 of us in the Senate and no black women?"
Haines continued, saying there are "nine women governors, which is a
record. We have a record number of women in Congress but that’s still
only 27%."

Haines continued, saying there are "nine women
governors, which is a record. We have a record number of women in
Congress but that’s still only 27%."
The
activist concluded that women's right to vote is "still very fragile,"
saying, "Obviously, yes, the suffrage movement took up so much of the
last century but, what we know – the right to vote for women, and really
just our access as equal participants and citizens in this country, is
still very fragile and something that women must remain vigilant about."
"The World at a Crossroads: Donald Trump’s Presidency and Its Global Impact" When Donald Trump took the oath of office in January 2017, he promised a revolution in the way America interacted with the world. With his bold slogan, “America First,” Trump tore up the rulebook, upended norms, and redefined the United States’ role on the global stage. His presidency, marked by unorthodox decisions and sharp rhetoric, left an indelible impact on geopolitics, trade, and international diplomacy. Disrupting Global Alliances From the start, Trump made clear his disdain for what he saw as unfair burdens on the United States in global alliances. NATO, the bedrock of transatlantic security, came under fire as Trump accused member states of “freeloading.” His demand for increased defense spending sparked tension but also yielded results, as European nations stepped up their contributions. At the same time, Trump’s decision to withdraw the U.S. from key international agreements, such as...
GiẢI: VẼ DG vuông góc vối AH (G thuộc AH). Suy ra: DG//BC. Ta có: Góc BAH = góc BCA ( cùng phụ góc B) Mà góc BCA = góc GDA (góc trong cùng phía) Do đó: góc BAH = góc GDA Xét hai tam giác ABH và DAG, ta có: ü góc BAH = góc GDA (chứng minh trên) ü AB=AD ( giả thuyết) ü ABH vuông tại H, và AHG vuông tại G. Nếu học tới các trường hợp bằng nhau của tam giác vuông thì ghi là: Tam giác ABH = tam giác DAG (cạnh huyền góc nhon) Nếu chưa học tới thì ghi: Tam giác ABH = tam giác DAG (góc cạnh góc) Suy ra: AH=DG Lại có: DG=HE (vì EDGH là hình chủ nhật) Vậy AH=HE Sau này nếu có bài khó muốn hỏi thì em có thể vào đây ghi câu hỏi: Đặt câu hỏi . Lưu ý T chuyên Toán – Lý – Hóa nên hỏi một trong 3 môn này sẽ được trả lời nhanh.
