AOC Explains How and Why Roads, Bridges and Communities Were Designed To Be Racist: ‘There Is a Psychic Weight’
‘There is a psychic weight to living in communities that are designed to be disconnected’
EXCERPT:
OCASIO-CORTEZ: "There is a psychic weight to living in communities that are designed to be disconnected. It affects your social life. My neighborhood that I'm from, in the Bronx and Parkchester, we have some of the longest commutes in all of New York City. It is a commute not just to work, it is a commute to do anything. It is a commute to connect socially. It is a commute to connect spiritually. These decisions are designed to disconnect, disempower and isolate people.”
