Renowned Activist and Author of books like 'The Cathy Harris Story, A Whistleblower's Victorious Journey to Justice' and 'The Failure of Homeland In-Security - The Government's Dirty Little Secrets from an Insider', Cathy Harris, discusses her famous case and career with Yaa, Lasuria & Jakzun

In 1998, Cathy Harris was instrumental in exposing the racial profiling practices of Customs and Border Protection to Congress and to the public. Legislation was introduced and international travelers have more legal protections and stronger avenues of recourse if abused by U.S. Customs officials. Courage is that rare trait that requires the unusual strength to do what is right -Speaking truth to power and challenging a government infrastructure that thrives on the ignorance and fear of the people require uncommon courage. Cathy Harris as a modern day suffragist for human rights.

She has fought and continues to fight for the rights of international travelers, many of whom are African American women, who have been abused and violated by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) employees and other federal agencies.
As a U.S. Senior Customs Inspector/Officer, she was threatened by management, unjustly disciplined and ostracized by her peers.

Although Cathy has continually bore the consequences of her convictions, she continues to press on by bringing to the public's attention the many ways that U.S. Customs and Border Protections (CBP) officials have violated the human rights of international travelers and their own employees.
