Thank you, Vice President Kamala Harris


Vice President Kamala Harris had 107 days to unite the Democratic Party and launch her campaign for president. She made history as the first Black and South Asian woman to secure a major political party’s nomination. And her groundbreaking campaign was carried by Black women and other women of color leaders who came out en masse to donate, organize, volunteer, and vote. 

We will not allow their sacrifices, efforts, and hope be erased in this darkness. Add your name to say thank you and that you will keep fighting.

Why is this important?

Vice President Harris confronted the hate, vitriol, and threats repeatedly spewed by Donald Trump, JD Vance, and MAGA Republicans. She did it because she believed in the promise of this country and the power of joy, community, and unity over fear and divisiveness. 

Our movements are and always have been about more than a single election. Our fight to expose racism, white supremacy, and misogyny that this country was founded on, confront the powerful and wealthy elite, and resist hate meant to isolate and divide us—and instead dream and chart a better path forward—continues.

It continues because of the tireless work of the movement leaders who came before us and the movement leaders of today—everyday people who endured the worst of this country and still believed in each other and the possibilities of the future. It continues because of the possibilities seeded by Kamala Harris—the hope she inspired in millions of people who saw themselves and their loved ones in her campaign, and the fire she ignited in the 67 million people who voted for the future that we still deserve. 

Progress doesn’t happen overnight, and it is often faced with backlash. We appreciate Kamala Harris and the Black women and other women of color who faced that backlash head on this election. Who pushed forward. And who reminded us that our families and communities are worth fighting for every time. 

 

We will keep fighting. 

Thank you.
