52: Build Black Better

Kamala Harris and the Build Back Better Agenda

Kamala Harris discusses the Biden-Harris Build Back Better plan, focusing on healthcare, senior care, and the Domestic Workers Bill of Rights. Critics point out that Harris avoids specific policies for Black Americans, instead using broader terms like "women of color" and "minorities." Throwback clips from 2019 reinforce her position that policies benefiting Black families must benefit society as a whole to avoid being exclusionary.

The Build Back Better Plan and Domestic Workers

Kamala Harris discusses the "Build Back Better" plan, focusing on home health care and a "Bill of Rights" for domestic workers, who are predominantly women of color. The hosts notice that neither Harris nor Biden mentioned the "Lift Every Voice" act or the "Lyft Act" during this interview, despite previously using those titles to appeal to Black voters. They suggest the plans are being rebranded to suit different audiences.
