In this episode, we take our program to the community: We are on the ground with the American Constitution Society (ACS) for a show with Colorado state Representative Leslie Herod and Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford. Along with host Michele Goodwin, Herod and Ford discuss being Black in public office: namely, how they deal with the challenges and demands while staying true to themselves.
(This program is the final in a four-part series elevating Black lives in the wake of the tragic deaths of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor and George Floyd.)
