This was an interesting conversation...and it makes me wonder if she'll think next time before she rages. For someone who is 'not a victim' she sure has a lot of anger. For someone who is quite aware of their priviledge, she seems insecure enough to be openly hostile to those who would challenge that rage. And I was headdesking over the fact that she pulled the typical conservative bull - get asked a question, but don't answer the question; fill on with talking points that have nothing to do with the conversation. Get asked the question again - rinse and repeat.

I'm glad he had her on. I'm hoping that it does both sides good. But I'm afraid that all it did was drive home her narrow-minded, racist, comfily conservative white-priviledge view to Trevor's audience...and she didn't learn much from it. The bad thing is, she IS a victim but she is so busy declaring herself not to be she won't see it. I hate to say it, but she IS the typical well off southern woman. Her house could be burning down, but she won't see it because of course HER house could never burn down. UGH. Hard to put into words, alas. But her blinders have blinders. At least she agrees there should be more discussions across the aisles?
