    “Poor kids are just as smart and talented as white kids!”

    “It’s awful hard, as well, to get Latinx vaccinated as well. Why? They’re worried that they will be vaccinated and deported.”

    “Unlike the African American community, with notable exceptions, the Latino community is an incredibly diverse community with incredibly different attitudes about different things.”

    “You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.”
