Kamala Harris makes history as the first woman to become vice president [View all]
Sen. Kamala Harris is officially the first woman, first Black person, and first South Asian American person to be elected vice president of the United States. She and incoming President Joe Biden have won their bid against President Donald Trump and will be sworn in this January.
Harris has made history: No woman has ever served as vice president or president in the US. Her election to the office and the representation she brings is significant for many voters.
Shes the first Black woman to be considered vice president of this country, and it means so much to me, being a Black woman who is a leader, who looks up to people like her, Brittany Oliver, a womens rights activist and communications director who backed Harris during the primary, previously told Vox.
Harriss nomination for this role was groundbreaking. As the new vice president, Harris could play a major role in shaping policies and priorities for a Biden administration, while sending a strong message about whats possible for other women and people of color.
