#BlackHistory Spotlight: Kamala Harris

Kamala Harris

Kamala Harris has already accomplished some impressive ‘firsts.’ She’s the first female, the first African-American and the first Asian-American to become Attorney General of California, a post she was elected to in 2010 and reelected to last year.
Harris, 50, whose mother is Tamil Indian and whose father is Jamaican-American, is a graduate of Howard University and the University of California’s Hastings College of the Law.
Last year, after the long-running Democratic Senator Barbara Boxer announced she was retiring, Harris was the first candidate to announce her bid for U.S. Senate. She would be just the second African-American female Senator in U.S. history.
