how to eliminate key error with pandas get_dummies function – Artificial Intelligence

When I run the pandas get_dummies() function it returns a keyerror stating that all of my columns are nonexistent. The following code uses copyrighted data and I am citing it: UCI Machine Learning Repository’s adult dataset cited Dua, D. and Graff, C. (2019). UCI Machine Learning Repository [http://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml]. Irvine, CA: University of California, School of Information and Computer Science.

I am unsure what to try.

I expect pandas get_dummies() function to convert all categorical attributes into numerical ones, but instead pycharm is returning a keyerror that tells me that none of my columns exist, when clearly they do.
