THREAD on the media erasure of #KamalaHarris
When I first heard Kamala supporters say the media was erasing Kamala I thought they were being overly dramatic. But they brought receipts, and I& #39;ve gathered more.

These tweets by @ShelDiehl describe how Kamala was erased the day after she gave her groundbreaking speech at the Liberty & Justice dinner in Iowa. (WaPost: "She received a rousing ovation, even from other candidatesâ supporters.")

After this week& #39;s Democratic debate in which Kamala was widely considered the clear WINNER, @NBCNews didn& #39;t even include her in its "Top Moments" video clips.

Another erasure by @NBCNews of Kamala from the Democratic debate this week. This was the morning after on their home page.
Again, she WON the debate.
Where is she???

Today on NPR& #39;s "All Things Considered Weekend Edition," the guest listed the candidates from this week& #39;s DemDebate, but his ONLY comment about the entire debate was, "In the end, nothing really happened."
Again, Kamala WON the debate.

We ALL know why this is happening. A black candidate who also happens to be a woman? Running for the highest office in America & the most powerful position in the world?
We can all do the (racist & misogynist) math.

We white people have got some hard questions to ask ourselves, because racism-- from subtle to extreme-- is endemic among us.
Men, you have some hard questions to ask yourselves, because the same is true for misogyny.

As a white woman, I& #39;m sickened to see this happening in 2019. I won& #39;t stay silent while this outstanding candidate is forced to fight JUST TO BE SEEN & HEARD.
I will call out any media outlet who erases her. You?
