Kamala's Impact

Hello, all, and welcome to Equality! This is a course where learn about the importance of, of course, equality, but to be more specific, we've been discussing women, gender, as well as African-American history. I really enjoy this course because I love hearing everybody's opinions on topics that make them feel particularly "uncomfy," not to mention, we see each other's anger towards certain issues such as slavery, segregation, homophobia, etc. But, to get back on track here, let's talk about our Action Project!

The mission of this AP is to create a textbook that is focused on a historical event related to race, gender, and/or class. I decided to make my chapter about Kamala Harris' Vice Presidential electing. I wanted to write on that topic because her election made a huge impact on my family. Like Kamala, my family is black and Indian so you could guess how ecstatic we were to see that someone that looks like us can have such an important job in the White House.

Please read my chapter for more :)

Overall, this Action Project was super cool! I enjoyed learning more about Kamala and her journey leading up to her becoming the Vice president. I also loved writing about something that interests me along with my family.
