This Sunday in #nerdland: Hillary Clinton 2.0 and Race Talk.
Hillary Clinton, the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination for President, held her first big campaign rally on Saturday on Roosevelt Island in Manhattan — and re-introduced herself to the Democratic base that she hopes will make her the first woman to be President. But here’s the thing about presidential elections: It’s all about turnout. Can she turn President Obama’s base into her own? Our panel will discuss these questions and more!
Panelists include:
- Cristina Jimenez, co-founder and the Managing Director, United We Dream
- Rebecca Traister, senior editor of The New Republic
- Jamelle Bouie, staff writer at Slate
- Jamira Burley, co-founder of GenYNot
- Katon Dawson, South Carolina Perry campaign director
Then, Rachel Dolezal, a name that has the country erupting over racial identity. Host Melissa Harris-Perry will continue her discussion on the issue of policing racial boundaries and the concept of “trans-racial.”
