Is she suggesting that her unpaid New York State tax bill was a consequence of her inability to navigate that “professional environment” correctly as a “woman of color?”

Good catch, Gordon! The Irish vote... Would like to see her try an Irish accent.

She probably got lots of practice being Ted Kennedy’s intern.

I heard she took swimming lessons before taking that job.

“...and take the blame for Spanish Conquistadorism”

AOC is 70% Spanish and the rest mixed Indian (Taino?) and black. My guess at least. She should get on Henry Louis Gates show and get her DNA analyzed and her ancestors named.

"Code-switching is a tool communities learn when they’re told their voice, appearance and mannerisms are “unprofessional.”

So you did your code-switching to a low brow accent from your usual high brow accent appear unprofessional to your black audience.

Got it.
Sounds to me like you were being demeaning to them.

“Code-switching,” eh? And to think that for centuries, the rest of us, of all races and cultures, called it “play-acting, posing, and LYING.”

The Latina’s in NY accept her even though she is a Yorktown heights bitch who has no relation to the Bronx. Like the color black it doesn’t matter as long as you are there to give out free stuff

Maybe AOC took lessons from the master Killary?

She has far more in common with rich white girls than any minority, black or Hispanic, in the Bronx.

Well, both of my parents had multiple advanced degrees, so no one ever accused them of being dumb. You, on the other hand....

“Just let a conservative anglo roll out the “code switching” on some latinos and watch for leftist hysteria.”

What’s wrong with that? Sounds like a strategy to drive leftists insane.
