When President Biden took his oath of office on Wednesday, the most diverse administration in U.S. history came into power. It has done so at a time of multiple crises: The coronavirus has spiraled, even as vaccination efforts are underway. A massive economic downturn has disproportionately driven women out of the workforce most of them Black and Latina. And while Donald Trump is out, Trumpism continues to roil the country.
