So where did that take you? Like as far as like a career trajectory, what was like? It took me—I

think I assumed, and this is a mistake I made, and I want to signpost it as a mistake.

I made a mistake of thinking politics wasn't—like, I couldn't do politics for real.

Like, you grow up poor, you grow up Black, you grow up gay, you grow up—all the bullshit, all the things, right? I don't know.

a very woke one-point identitarian thing, whatever.

You don't see people who look like you.

I had no idea how to get into politics.

Yeah.
