Summary

A color biography of Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez that explores her rise and impact on the future of American culture and politicsA child of Puerto Rico, the Bronx, and Yorktown Heights, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez took on a ten-time incumbent-- and won. She was sworn in as the youngest member of the 116th Congress and became the youngest woman to serve as a representative in United States history. Here the editors of New York magazine explain AOC in all her power and vulnerability. Readers will come to understand her in the context of the fast-changing America that made AOC possible-- and perhaps even inevitable. -- adapted from jacket
