For weeks (and arguably years) Trump and Trump supporters portrayed Harris as a barely verbal idiot. Then she thrashed him so badly he refused to debate her again. This says something about why diversity efforts matter and why the right opposes them www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Now, it would be simpler for conservatives who claimed Harris was an imbecile to admit that maybe the current vice president and former senator, attorney general, and district attorney is just smarter than they were giving her credit for. But that would require abandoning the assumptions about Black people and women that drove them to make their initial assessment. They cannot do that, because doing so would illustrate why diversity efforts are necessary in the first place: that plainly competent people are often wrongly assumed to be stupid because they are not white men, and denied opportunities as a result.
