'New Yorker' cover celebrates the 100+ women coming to Congress

Though it's (generally) been a bad time for the United States, it's also been a golden age for New Yorker covers.

The magazine's November 19 cover, however, celebrates one recent, joyous victory: the more than 100 women who were elected to Congress on Tuesday. Instead of letting Trump dominate the cover yet again, women, specifically women of color, take center stage.

I can't remember the last time I saw a cover this...happy.
