As a child, Harris lived briefly on Milvia Street in central Berkeley and her family then moved to the upper floor of a duplex on Bancroft Way in West Berkeley, an area often called "the flatlands". When she began kindergarten, she was bused as part of school desegregation efforts to Thousand Oaks School, a public primary school in a more prosperous neighborhood in northern Berkeley.[1]
