There are many heroes in our world ; one of mine is Kamala Devi Harris . She is a hero to many people including women and African Americans . She is a true leader . But how did she become what she is today ?
Kamala Harris became what she is today in amazing ways . Her parents are Donald J . Harris and Shyamala Gopalan . Kamala was born on October twentieth , nineteen sixty-four in Oakland California . She graduated from Howard University and the University of California , and Hastings College of the Law . Kamala began her career in the Alameda County District Attorney ’ s Offi ce . Later she was recruited to the San Francisco District Attorney ’ s Offi ce . She worked her way up to Vice President in 2021 . Her husband is Doug Emhoff . Everything she has done and everyone she has met have morphed her into being the hero she is today .
One of the out of the world things about Harris is how she inspires everyone . She inspires women by becoming the fi rst female Vice President and that shows a leap in our country that she played a part in . Harris is not just the fi rst female Vice President but the fi rst African American and
Asian American Vice President too . Kamala Harris is a very inspiring person and to me , that makes her a hero .
There is so much more . I think Kamala is a hero for being herself . She does not let anyone tell her to stop from reaching her goal . Kamala is a strong woman and she follows her dreams . She has gone on a long trip to become our Vice President and has grown on every step . Kamala learns from her mistakes and is not afraid to admit them when she makes them . Harris is strong and loves what she does . To me she is a hero for never stopping on her journey to the spot she stands at today . She is a true leader and has proved that anything is possible . She has done the fi rst half of the run , and now she has inspired us to do the next part to reach equality . She is truly my hero and will use her spot as our Vice president for good .
Kamala Devi Harris is an amazing person . She is a role model to women in the world . Her past inspired her as much as she inspires us . She has turned a step into a leap and will not stop any time soon . Kamala Harris is a hero to me and many people in the world .
