ABOUT

Illustration of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. I’ve been following this incredible person ever since she got in, but was inspired to do a piece on her after watching the incredible Netflix film Knock down the House - which follows four female democrats who decided to run for Congress, they were Amy Vilela, Cori Bush, Paula Jean Swearengin and Ocasio-Cortez. Only Cortez won, but all four are equally inspiring and powerful, willing to fight for their communities and for what is right and fair. If you haven’t seen it yet. I highly recommend you do.
