This week, Natasha Alford explored political coalition building through three lenses.

Featured guests are Congresswoman Barbara Lee, U.S. Representative for California’s Twelfth District; Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao; and Mandela Barnes, former Wisconsin Lieutenant Governor and founder of The Long Run.
