The real celebration of the election results is that, for the first time in our history, the Vice President-elect is a woman: Kamala Harris. She is a true leader in every sense of the word.
When Barack Obama became the first black President of the U.S., I saw the positive impact it had on my son, who is also black. Harris serving as vice president (and maybe president someday) is inspiring to young girls and women everywhere. Through her, they see they can achieve anything they set out to do in their lives; hence, my motivation to write on this topic today.
