In this conversation with Mckayla Wilkes, community organizer and former Democratic Congressional candidate, we delve into the affects of Kamala Harris's presidential campaign and how Black priorities are often left out. We hear Mckayla's analysis of the reliance on identity politics without substantive policy changes, the role of celebrity endorsements, and the influence of corporate money in political campaigns. Our discussion highlights the disservice being done by legacy politicians and emphasizes the importance of grassroots activism in advocating for the needs of Black communities.
