This video provides a short biography about the first female, first Black and first person of Indian descent to be awarded the vice presidency in the United States of America: Kamala Harris.

The video dates from last August (before Joe Biden won the presidential election in November, 2020) and tracks Kamala's history in law and politics and what her policy priorities are.

This video could be used for a discussion within Crime and Deviance (prison reform), gender and race.
