In one of her first big, national TV interviews after the primary, Alexandria talked about the moment she found out that she won the election and what Democratic socialism means to her.
Alexandria takes Vogue through her beauty routine, and shares some key advice: “If you’re feeling particularly challenged that day, look in the mirror and say, ‘I’m the bomb’ and I will make the world a better place.”
Alexandria shares how her time as a waitress was politically formative and describes how restaurants are a crucible of so many different public policies.
On MLK Day, Alexandria sat down with Ta-Nehisi Coates to discuss the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. and how we can apply his lessons to today. They discuss activism, organizing, and the in-the-trenches work of being in the streets.
In her first interview after seeing election results, Alexandria reacts to the news and thanks the grassroots organizers who made this victory possible. Only one TV outlet, NY1, was at her victory party.
