Horizontal Harris was Willie Brown's mistress. He was married and Mayor of San Fran at the time she began sleeping her way through the political spectrum. But, it is California so who cares right?
To all the women, people of color.... when you are championing the "first woman/first woman of color VP" are you going to tell how she got there to your daughters? Legitimate question.
Willie Brown was separated or estranged from his wife for like 10 years before dating Harris, correct?
The power dynamic there was that Willie had all the power. She was a beautiful 29-year-old attorney 31 years his junior. Did she take advantage of him or did he take advantage of her? Or maybe neither, were they just two adults having a relationship?
Trying to undo a incredibly successful woman's accomplishments because, "BUT BUT BUT she had SEX" is petty and an accusation that's unique to women. No man, no matter how much he sleeps around, ever has to deal with whispers of his career being empowered because of who he had sex with.
