One night after a segment on Laura Ingraham‘s show mocked Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) for the way she pronounces her name, the congresswoman fired back.

In a Wednesday night tweetstorm, Ocasio-Cortez slammed Ingraham and Fox News over the segment — in which Ingraham said that when the congresswoman “introduces herself, does she take on that Obama, Obama put on accents.”

The New York Representative also cited a comment from Ingraham guest Joe diGenova, who said, “she does the Latina thing where she does her, you know, ‘Anastasio [sic] Ocasio-Cortez.”

“If by ‘the Latina thing,’ she means I actually do the work instead of just talk about it, then yeah, I’m doing ‘the Latina thing, ’Unless of course she‘s talking about being multilingual, which we know isn’t a ‘Latina thing.’” Ocasio-Cortez wrote — misattributing the comment to Ingraham rather than diGenova.

If by ‘the Latina thing,’ she means I actually do the work instead of just talk about it, then yeah, I’m doing ‘the Latina thing.’ Unless of course she‘s talking about being multilingual, which we know isn’t a ‘Latina thing.’ It’s a ‘21st century’ thing.https://t.co/v41dAyjshP — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) March 21, 2019

Siri, show me the brand of ‘economic anxiety’ that mocks Americans of color as unintelligent + unskilled, while *also* mocking those same Americans for speaking more languages than you: pic.twitter.com/HXBC7Osexu — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) March 21, 2019

“How dare they refuse to say their name in a wrong accent & not mangle their own family name so that I can feel more comfortable instead of look inside myself & examine why something as small as *a person’s name* makes me uncomfortable in the first place?? This is an outrage!” https://t.co/ArYd28WVcv — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) March 21, 2019

Later in her tweetstorm, the congresswoman accused Fox News of calling her “Cortez.”

“[W]hich I can only imagine is bc that sounds more ‘stereotypically’ Hispanic + probably incites more ‘anxiety’ for them,” she wrote.

By the way: Fox News likes to say my name (incorrectly) as “Cortez,” which I can only imagine is bc that sounds more ‘stereotypically’ Hispanic + probably incites more ‘anxiety’ for them. Pro Tip:

My last name is not “Cortez,” just as theirs isn’t “Ingra” or “Carl” or “Hann.” — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) March 21, 2019

My last name is Ocasio-Cortez. Full stop. That’s my name. No, you can’t say “Cortez.” I’ve never used that in my life. “Cortez” is referring to someone else. Even if they‘re trying to be rude + wrong, my dad’s last name was Ocasio anyway. (His name was hyphenated too, though.) — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) March 21, 2019

For the curious, in Latinx culture children take *both* their parents‘ names. It’s not a “progressive, new thing.” It’s just how some names work. PR hyphenates, others mark differently. Your last name = the families that came together to make you. AOC is also fine though :) — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) March 21, 2019
