Joe Biden out, Kamala Harris in? This week, Angela Priestley and Tarla Lambert take another look at US politics in light of Joe Biden bowing out of the presidential race and endorsing his Vice President, Kamala Harris. There is some positivity and good energy now that Kamala Harris has launched her campaign, but there have also been some racist and misogynistic campaigning from the Trump camp...We’ll also hear from the Victorian Greens leader Ellen Sandell in an exclusive interview with Women's Agenda journalist and podcast producer, Olivia Cleal. Sandell was a scientist and fierce climate activist before she began her political career in 2014. She’s a young leader, a mother and no doubt a force to be reckoned with in the Victorian Parliament.
