Omar's colleague Ayanna Pressley made this explicit: "We don’t need any more brown faces that don’t want to be a brown voice" [1] 1: https://thehill.com/homene

  The irony is that most of Pressley’s “brown voices” sound exactly like white people. It’s a bizarre sort of identity politics where the people who are selected to “represent” different groups don’t advance the views or positions of those groups, but instead lend their identity to advance the views and positions of white allies.
