Here's the blurb. Transcript here. It's not as black and white as critics make it out to be. To the contrary, there's a lot of 'color' in-between when looking at the entirety of her past record that is usually ignored.
"As Senator Kamala Harris makes history as the first woman of color on a
major party ticket, we host a debate on her record as California
attorney general and San Francisco district attorney, when she proudly
billed herself as 'top cop' and called for more cops on the street. San
Francisco Deputy Public Defender Niki Solis says Harris was the state’s
most progressive DA and advocated for 'so many policies and so many
alternatives to incarceration.' Law professor Lara Bazelon says Harris
was on the wrong side of history for often opposing criminal justice
reform, though her record did change as a senator. 'Her office fought
tooth and nail to uphold wrongful convictions that in some cases kept
innocent people in prison,' Bazelon says."
