"A Generational Fight": Political Organizers on Kamala Harris, Defeating Authoritarianism & More

Support our work: https://democracynow.org/donate/sm-de... Vice President Kamala Harris made history Thursday as the first Black woman and the first person of South Asian descent to be nominated to lead a major party's presidential ticket. There are now just two-and-a-half months left before the November 5 election, when she will face Republican nominee Donald Trump at the polls. For more, we speak with two political organizers — Maurice Mitchell, national director for the Working Families Party, and Mohammed Khader, manager of policy and advocacy campaigns at the US Campaign for Palestinian Rights — and with historian and activist Barbara Ransby.
