Courage: Iconic Image of Female Hillary Supporter Running Gauntlet of Male Protesters (HRC GP)

[Her Sister]

The untold heroes of the 2016 election are the millions of Hillary supporters who, despite being disregarded, demeaned and marginalized, have carried Hillary to victory after historic victory.

In the face of a colossal onslaught, Hillary’s voters have shown dignity, courage and resilience, defying relentlessly negative media narratives and personal attacks to express their support for Hillary. Their indomitability mirrors Hillary’s.

The photo of a young women with her fists raised, proudly expressing her support for Hillary in the face of a group of (mostly) male anti-Hillary protesters, encapsulates the 2016 election. It conjures 227 years of history...

8. Another one checking in here...I have the hides and forced time-outs to show for it.

Proud war wounds...LOL!

The cyber-gauntlet has been run!

But, in the face of such blatant hatred and flagrant physical threats, I'm not sure I'd have that young woman's courage.

She will become an iconic figure in the struggle.

11. Beautiful! They did pretty much the same thing this morning at the CT Democratic State Convention..

....with signs with the same messages and doing the same screaming insults (even though they didn't know if we were all Clinton or Sanders supporters) It's almost like they're on mailing lists with marching/protesting orders. Same messages, same abusive behavior, etc.

That doesn't attract votes!

13. A strong and joyful woman

standing up to a mob of bullies!!

Love it!

14. I hope this picture goes viral!

Love vs Hate, positivism vs negativity...LOVE IT

15. Don't mess with black women, 'less you want a knock-out punch. Black women are FEARLESS.

They've had to deal with so much unfair crap in their lives that a little screaming ain't gonna deter them. And they're wicked SMART. It's also why they support Hillary Clinton over BS. They don't do BS.

As you can see in the image, those uninformed idiots toned down when she passed them by. They're at least smart enough to know black women don't suffer fools and you never, ever challenge them and think you'll win an argument with them once they're riled up. Best to shut up and step back.

I have nothing but respect for black men and women.
