Marjorie Taylor Greene’s New Comment About Jasmine Crockett Is Being Called A “Macroaggression”

The congresswoman had addressed some of these accusations before. 

“I don’t have an ‘accent’ … if anything, it’s Texan, maybe mixed with a little bit of St. Louis,” she said in a TikTok video in March. “And then determining that my ‘accent’ is fake because of the types of schools I went to … seriously, y’all?”

And as it relates to Greene’s recent attacks on Crockett, Portia Allen-Kyle, a civil rights attorney and interim executive director at the racial justice organization Color Of Change, said that Greene “doesn’t understand the reality that Blackness is disrespected in this country no matter how many degrees you hold or how much money you make.”

Allen-Kyle told HuffPost that the Republican congresswoman showed her “own ignorance” during her appearance on Kelly’s podcast.
