What's the video of alexandria ocasio-cortez 2019 talking about? I want the summary of this interview.

AOC: Sometimes it feels like everyone's looking at you and no one is. But now everyone actually is looking at me and I'm like. oh my god.' 
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on breaking the mold.
AOC: 'Being bright in a place that is not usually bright, wearing a red lip in a place where there aren't too many red lips. It's it's really thrilling even though it can kind of feel like you're breaking a rule sometimes.
There were so few other people that I felt like looked like me or or had lived my path and doing what I was doing. I felt like I had to kind of carve out a way of doing this on my own that was authentically me. And so it's been scary and it's been exciting."
The Bronx-born 29-year-old daughter of Puerto Rican parents is the youngest woman ever elected to Congress.
AOC: 'And so when you're only seeing white dudes just like running the world. You think you need to act like a white dude to run the world. Like, straight up like you think you need to talk a certain way dress a certain way have your shoulder pads out to here, be like 'Hi, Jan!
There's even just a few ways to wear professional clothing in an environment like that where even you just showing up to work wearing what you wear is breaking a mold of some kind.' Ocasio-Cortez has been scrutinized for her clothing but she's also used her style to make a statement.

AOC: 'The problem is, that that mold wasn't made for you. And so even if you try the hardest at being not you will not be as good as someone who's just that already. I want to show other people that there are other ways of being powerful in the world.
When you decide that you want to be just brave it it opens up way more possibilities than trying to be perfect ever does... When you do something in a different way, it forces other people to adapt and change and it lets you kind of break away and set the tone for things instead of trying to follow the path that's already well-worn.
You work and then you get to a place where your colleagues are people that that aren't like you a lot of the time. And so I think what I always focus on is holding the door open for all of the other people like you that are to come.
Work is not just how much value you're creating to the exterior world. Sometimes work is how much value you're creating to yourself.'
