Kamala Harris and Doug Emhoff seem to be the most talked about couple on the planet right now, and there is a very good reason for that. With our Madam Vice President being a Black and South Asian woman, the visual of her White Husband stepping into the role of Second Gentleman (as well as stepping back to let Harris lead and shine) disrupts the gender roles that we are commonly used to seeing. In this episode, we talk about how important the image of an interracial couple in public office is, what gender stereotypes we are rethinking, and how we can normalize those image of power and support going forward.
