KAMALA HARRIS PROJECT

​Long before Vice President Kamala Harris emerged as the leading Democratic candidate for president, Professor Duchess Harris was closely monitoring the politician's career.

Prof. Harris was appointed to the advisory board for the Kamala Harris Project in 2021. The Project is composed of sixteen nonpartisan scholars from around the country who have been tracking her tenure as the nation's first Black woman vice president.

In recent interviews with MPR and KARE 11, she provided insight on this historic moment.

"A lot of people were not focusing on her because people did not think this moment was going to happen," said Professor Harris. "What I think is going to be interesting is how she will now be vetted in a way that she was not vetted four years ago."
