Rep. Karen Bass, who joined Congress in 2011 and currently serves California's 37th district, has been interested in activism and public policy since she was young, having volunteered for the Robert F. Kennedy campaign at just 14 years old. With the deaths of Kennedy and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., however, Bass' parents never wanted her to be an activist due to their concerns for her safety. Bass tells host Giselle Fernandez about her political ascent after founding the Community Coalition in the 1990s, when she saw a need for change in Los Angeles. Many say it was her bipartisanship efforts in Congress that landed Bass as a top contender for President Biden's VP during the 2020 election, and her name often comes up with the mention of either the 2022 LA Mayor race or as a contender to replace Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
