Kamala Harris Breaks Barriers; The Future Of The Republican Party 

Kamala Harris breaks a number of barriers on Wednesday, most notably, the first woman and person of Black and South Asian heritage to become vice president. Professor of history Manisha Sinha explains what Harris' ascension to power means to her. And, support remains high for former President Trump among Republican voters, so what is the future of the Republican Party? We speak with Jeff Flake, a Republican who represented Arizona in the U.S. Senate but did not support Trump. That and more, in hour one of Here & Now's Jan. 20, 2021, full broadcast.
