Source : Working-Class Women and Warren
To the Editors: Caroline Fraser was unduly harsh in her assessment of Elizabeth Warren’s candidacy. Invoking the pathos of her working-class upbringing and gender struggles is no different than Bernie Sanders invoking his forebear’s immigrant status (a Pole who knew no English and who arrived penniless) as a way to relate (successfully, one might add) to the Latino experience. She may seem mawkish but her personal stories resonate with working-class women.
