The Latino Majority Welcomes Vice President Kamala Harris

The Latino Majority

There are few better seats at the table than the one next to the president of the United States. As vice president, Kamala Harris recognizes that privilege. And like the influential Latinos and Latinas featured on The Latino Majority, she recognizes it as a result of those underrepresented leaders who came before her. Those who walked into spaces of corporate and political power knowing they would be judged and undervalued—but did so with their chins up and shoulders back. Her story has long been one of resolve. Magnified not only by her ascent to become the first female vice president in US history, but also in how she’s operated since taking office. She has remained steadfast in her dedication to the expansion of rights and the continued investment in multicultural and multigenerational businesses. That advocacy for our nation’s diverse communities both honors her predecessors and guides her successors.
