...much more about her experience in the article.

'Harris’ older sister is Kamala Harris, the Attorney General of California.'

'According to Wikipedia, prior to joining the Ford Foundation, Harris served as the executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Northern California. Before joining the ACLU, the former law school dean (Lincoln Law School of San Jose) was a senior associate at PolicyLink. She has authored two publications which include a report highlighting community-centered policing practices nationwide and an advocacy manual for police reform.'
