No where in this article did it say that Michelle Obama thinks that because she faced racism then racism must be the cause for everything bad.

Because you missed it the first time I'll reiterate the message from two sentences in the article:
"Obama said women should own their scars. Referring to failure..." and "Instead of waiting on national policies, she said women need to take charge every day in their own lives and their community."
.
P.S. What choice did Michelle Obama make that justifies calling her an ape in heels?
