An Interview with Laura Harding, President of ERASE Racism

Laura Harding had some mighty big shoes to fill, succeeding Elaine Gross as president of Syosset-based equal-rights watchdog ERASE Racism. But over her first 10 months on the job, fill them she has, running headlong into this new opportunity and leading the 22-year-old anti-discrimination organization through fresh inclusive-housing and education-funding initiatives. In today’s episode, the attorney, social worker, seasoned social-justice advocate and "adopted Long Islander" joins Spark host Gregory Zeller to discuss her high-profile career, her faith in today’s youth and the importance of positivity – plus, the subtle power of injecting humor into difficult situations.
