About this episode
We’ve talked about the traffic, we’ve talked about the hype, and we’ve talked about the after-parties. But another major component of the Democratic National Convention are the protests. Earlier this week producer Michelle Navarro headed to Union Park where the Coalition to March on the DNC 2024 was planning the largest protest gathering in the city. Ahead of the coalition’s second protest and Vice President Kamala Harris’ convention closing speech tonight, we’re hearing from protesters on why they’re out marching.
