Progressive darling Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez loves to do strange Instagram live videos. Although they aren't quite up there with Beto O'Rourke's, sometimes they leave you wondering why she would think to talk about a specific topic or say some of the things she does.
The representative from New York decided to do an Instagram live video with her boyfriend, Riley. In the video the two decided to talk about racism and even offer white people tips to combat it.
"So, Riley, what has been helpful to you in combating racism?" Ocasio-Cortez asked her other half.
"I think it's helpful and important to talk to other white people about racism. I think a lot of people don't want to be racist they don't think that they're racist but they also don't know or some of the things they believe or say are or can be racist," he explained. "And I think one of the effective ways is to just talk and kind of teach them about why some of the things they believe or say or think are wrong. Not necessarily racist, but that they're wrong. That will sort of chip away and contribute to some development in this area but not necessarily take someone from being a racist to not being a racist in one conversation."
The congresswoman nodded her head in agreement.
