LOS ANGELES — Last month, after the first L.A. mayoral debate between Karen Bass and Rick Caruso, I approached their campaigns with the same request.
I wanted to sit down with each candidate to discuss subjects that would offer insight into how they would serve as mayor.
I asked Bass to talk about her Mexican American stepchildren. As a family, they have lived what so many people say L.A. has always lacked and needs now more than ever: good relations between the Black and Latino communities.
