So you want to talk about Kamala Harris?
Last week, in a historic decision, the Democratic Presidential nominee Joe Biden announced Senator Kamala Harris of California as his Vice Presidential pick. As the first black woman to be nominated on a major party ticket and the first Indian American to be nominated, Senator Harris's nomination is history in the making. But, the woman who dubs herself a "progressive prosecutor" has had an iffy past when it comes to criminal justice and reform. During her tenure as a District Attorney and Attorney General she has made some notable regressive decisions and policy changes that have come to haunt her during this election season. While the nomination has been controversial in some progressive circles, it has conversely been lauded by some progressive activists including Angela Davis. So who is Kamala Harris?
Join Anjali, Dane, Eshaan, Vinny, and Benny as we dive into Kamala Harris's history. From her first day being bussed to public school to her recent policy endeavors in the senate: this is a podcast to discover who Kamala Harris is and what her nomination means for the future of the Democratic Party.
