Bernie campaign sent a new spokesperson to be interviewed on CNN this morning

I was still a bit sleepy so I didn't get her name, but she is a black woman. I watch CNN a lot and I am pretty sure this was her first appearance for the Sanders campaign. Before now it was always a white guy speaking for the for Bernie's organization. With a crucial primary coming up in SC, I found the sudden change of the campaign spokesperson a little.....well, obvious and may even a little condescending, but certainly interesting.
