My mother, Shyamala, raised me to believe in civil rights, to do something: Kamala Harris

#ThePrintUncut #KamalaHarris #USElections At her first campaign speech as vice-presidential pick, California Senator Kamala Harris spoke about her Indian and Jamaican upbringing during the Civil Rights Movement and the ongoing #BlackLivesMatter campaign. "My mother and father, they came from opposite sides of the world to arrive in America, one from India and the other from Jamaica, in search of a world class education. But what brought them together was the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s. And that's how they met, as students in the streets of Oakland marching and shouting for this thing called justice in a struggle that continues today. And I was part of it. My parents would bring me to protests strapped tightly in my stroller. And my mother, Shyamala, raised my sister Maya and me to believe that it was up to us and every generation of Americans to keep on marching. She'd tell us, 'Don't sit around and complain about things. Do something.' So I did something," Harris said in Delaware. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Connect with ThePrint » Subscribe to ThePrint : http://bit.ly/SubscribeToThePrint » Like us on Facebook:   / theprintindia   » Tweet us on Twitter:   / theprintindia   » Follow us on Instagram:   / theprintindia   » Find us on LinkedIn :   / theprint   » Subscribe to ThePrint on Telegram: https://t.me/ThePrintIndia
