Folge 22: Kamala Harris – The Woman a Heartbeat Away From the Presidency? - a podcast by Heidelberg Center for American Studies

Presidential elections in the U.S. are less than three weeks away. This episode of the HCA podcast takes a closer look at the vice-presidential candidate of the Democratic Party, Kamala Harris. Anja Schüler is talking to Manisha Sinha, Draper Chair in American History at the University of Connecticut. Her most recent book, The Slave's Cause: A History of Abolition won the 2017 Frederick Douglass Book Prize. Manisha Sinha has spoken several times at the HCA, most notably at the inauguration of the James W.C. Pennington Award, which pays tribute to a former slave who in 1849 received an honorary doctorate from the University of Heidelberg.
