Huh...we’re in basic agreement...my mocking comment was grounded in her “narrative”, exactly that “poor oppressed Puerto Rican nina”...in effect pointing out she knows darn little about the Bronx.
I don’t see how she could. She left when she was five and grew up in Yorktown Heights , a far cry from the Bronx. In the late ‘70s and early ‘80s I worked in a labor union in the Bronx. On West Kingsbridge Road, working on a new VA hospital. That was back in the days when the Bronx was being referred to as “Fort Apache’’.
