The announcement of Kamala Harris, a high-profile senator, woman, African American, Indian American and child of immigrants, as the Democratic Party Vice Presidential candidate inspired both cheers and attacks. Award-winning author and Emory University Professor of African American Studies, Carol Anderson, joins me on the show today to talk about this historic nomination.
Attorney, political
activist, and anti-trust and corruption expert, Zephyr Teachout, shares
her latest calls for reform in a new book BREAK 'EM UP: Recovering Our
Freedom from Big Ag, Big Tech, and Big Money. She chronicles the

media to online retail and offers solutions to take back control. She joins me

government.
