Gov. Hochul says she 'misspoke' when she said some 'black kids' don't know the word 'computer'

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul apologizes for saying that there are "young black kids" in the Bronx who don't know the word "computer" during a speech at the Milken Institute conference this week.

"Now what we have is the money to build a phenomenal super computer that is gonna be accessible to the researchers in New York, college students, will attract more federal grants, and this is how we lay down the mark," Hochul said. "No state has done this. In fact, I talk to a lot of other people who say, ‘I wish my governor had thought of that first.’ I say, ‘No no, this is New York. We like to be first,’ with all due respect to you from other states." Timothy Nerozzi is a writer for Fox News Digital.

"It’s sort of our attitude," Hochul continued. "We will be the best, we will be the first, and I want others to follow, because right now we have young Black kids growing up in the Bronx who don’t even know what the word 'computer' is. They don’t know. They don’t know these things."
