Vice President Kamala Harris has forged a powerful legacy defined by resilience and groundbreaking achievements. Harris, a 60-year-old Oakland, California native and proud HBCU graduate, was born to immigrant parents: a Black Jamaican father and an Indian mother. She has blazed trails in every chapter of her career.

Despite being registered and/or outspoken Republicans, quite a few famous ones endorsed Kamala Harris in the 2024 election. From politicians to TV hosts, a handful of proud conservatives said they would cast their ballots for the Democratic candidate instead of Republican candidate Donald Trump.

Vice President Kamala Harris received a slew of celebrity endorsements during her campaign, leading to questions of their impact.

Kamala Harris was a few battleground states away from being elected the nation’s first woman president, but she couldn’t overcome an unpopular incumbent president and a fed-up American electorate. Her supporters are reeling from a historic loss and a glass ceiling they feel is bolted down by centuries-old race and gender barriers.
