Today, Vice President Kamala Harris will make history as the first Black woman to accept a major party’s nomination. It’s also the 60th anniversary of Fannie Lou Hamer’s powerful Democratic National Convention speech about Black Americans’ voting rights and representation.
Please make no mistake about it: This moment was predestined before Harris raised her hand to be sworn in to represent the people. This moment is for Fanny Lou and countless others who walked, fought, and died for it.
