Exploring representation on Beacon Hill

17:21

With a new crop of legislators sworn into office, Massachusetts' Black and Latino Legislative Caucus now has 25 members across both chambers, up from 17 last year.

We talk to state Sen. Liz Miranda and Rep. Russell Holmes, as well as Tufts University's Samuel Gebru, about what increased representation can mean and what inequities still remain.

This segment aired on January 10, 2023.
