It's disappointing to hear people who study public policies use such sloppy concepts and inflammatory language. E.g., it is reprehensible to use race as a proxy for SES. It is irresponsible to refer to any policy that results in economic disparities as "racist", which clearly implies intent. It is stupid and misleading to use vague terms such as "communities of color". All of this might serve to burnish her left-wing credentials, but she sounds like just another twit who can't be bothered with clarity, rigor, or the banal details of actual policy work.
