A cousin in Oklahoma, of all places (land of Trump Bibles in every classroom in a school system that ranks 49th in the nation), asked me what I thought of people who kill their own children after they are born. A friend who canvassed for Harris-Walz in Pennsylvania was told by a young Black man that he couldn't vote for the duo because they are pedophiles. As a Black woman, I was gutted to find out just how effective the campaign to convince people in my communities of the worst about Democrats has been. Mission accomplished.
