Five years ago, we asked Kamala Harris about reparations. Now her opponents are distorting her answer

During Charlamagne Tha God’s interview in Detroit with Vice President Kamala Harris on Tuesday night, an exchange took place that I’d been bracing for since she announced her run for president: Charlamagne: Have you seen the clip Madam Vice President from theGrio?

Editor’s note: The following article is an op-ed, and the views expressed are the author’s own. Read more opinions on theGrio. The venue — the Javits Convention Center — was chosen carefully and strategically, as much for its large glass ceiling as for its capacity. It would be beautifully symbolic, the campaign assumed, to have Hillary Clinton, our newly elected first woman president, give her acceptance speech under that glass dome while celebrating that we’d finally broken that highest, hardest […]
