  • Is Kamala Harris Typical 2
    Kamala Harris, center, in a yearbook photo from 1981 with fellow graduates at Westmount High. By Dan Bilefsky Published Oct. 5, 2020Updated Nov. 3, 2020 MONTREAL — There were heirs to Canadan fortunes who lived in hillside mansions and arrived at their high school in luxury cars. There were children of Caribbean immigrants who commuted by bus or subway from a historically Black neighborhood. There were Anglophones, Francophones and kids from Chinatown. And then there was Kamala Harris, an extroverted American teenager who had moved to Montreal from California at age 12, dreamed of becoming a lawyer and liked dancing to Diana Ross and Michael Jackson. Thrown into one of Montreal’s most diverse public high schools, the young Ms. Harris — whose father was from Jamaica and mother from India — identified as African-American, her friends from high school recalled. At the same time, they said, she deftly navigated the competing racial and social divisions at the school. “In high school, you were either in the white or the Black group,” said Wanda Kagan, her best friend from Westmount High School, who had a white mother and an African-American father. “We didn’t fit exactly into either, so we made ourselves fit into both.” The future senator spent her formative adolescent years in a multicultural environment typical of many Canadian public schools. As she makes history as the first woman of color on a presidential ticket, Canadians have claimed her as a native daughter, seeing her as an embodiment of the country’s progressive politics. Wanda Kagan, Kamala Harris’s best friend from high school, lived with Ms.

Raphael Warnock, nurse Sandra Lindsay and NASA astronaut Victor Glover. Photo credit: Getty; Photo Illustration: Gene Kim for CNBC Make It Black Americans have played a crucial role in helping to advance America’s business, political and cultural landscape into what it is today. And since 1976, every U.S. president has designated the month of February as Black History Month to honor the achievements and the resilience of the Black community. While CNBC Make It recognizes that Black history is worth being celebrated year-round, we are using this February to shine a special spotlight on 23 Black leaders whose recent accomplishments and impact will inspire many generations to come.

  • Economic Overview of Delhi Sectoral Composition and Contribution the Analysis of Sectoral Growth in GSDP of Delhi at Constant Pr
    Economic Overview of Delhi Sectoral Composition and Contribution The analysis of sectoral growth in GSDP of Delhi at constant prices reveals that the contribution of primary sector comprising of agriculture, livestock, forestry, fishing, mining & quarrying and also the secondary sector comprising of manufacturing, electricity, gas, water supply and construction is decreasing. At the same time, the tertiary sector, also called the service sector comprising of trade, hotels and restaurants, transport, storage, communication, financing & insurance, real estate, business services, public administration, is a major contributor in the economy of Delhi and getting enhanced regularly. The contribution of primary sector which was 3.85% during 1993-94 has come down to 0.97% in 2004-05 at 1993-94 constant prices. Similarly the contribution of secondary sector recorded at 25.20% in 1993-94, has also declined to 19.92% in 2004-05. On the other hand, the contribution of tertiary sector worked out to 70.95% in 1993-94 has enhanced to 79.11% in 2004-05. The reasons for change in the sectoral composition of Delhi economy could be attributed to the rapid urbanisation and consequential reduction in agricultural and allied activities on one hand and substantial increase in activities pertaining to the services sector on the other. At the same time, regular monitoring of environmental degradation by different government agencies on the directives of Supreme Court and subsequent closing of polluting industrial units in and around Delhi also contributed to the reduction of output in the secondary sector. Delhi's service sector has expanded due in part to the large skilled English-speaking workforce that has attracted many multinational companies.

The onset of the global pandemic caused by the COVID-19 outbreak has caused great distress across the world. From our perspective, it has meant that the Olympic Games scheduled to be held in Tokyo, Japan from July 24-August 9, 2020 have been postponed for the first time in history. While there is no doubt that the right decision was made, this postponement has led to a drastic shift in momentum for all our athletes who were in the ‘home stretch’ of their preparations. Having said that, this situation has also given us and our athletes a new purpose: that of being grateful, cherishing what we have and preparing even harder in the coming year to ensure we can move forward toward our goal of kickstarting an Olympic Movement in India! It fills me with immense pride to see the impact we have been able to create in Indian sport through the Inspire Institute of Sport (IIS) – our dedication to the nation built with the objective of churning out Champions for India.

  • Resolution Calling on the BUSD Board and Superintendent to Consider Renaming Thousand Oaks Elementary to Kamala Harris Elementary School
    Page 1 of 4 CONSENT CALENDAR December 1, 2020 To: Honorable Members of the City Council From: Vice Mayor Sophie Hahn (Author) Subject: Resolution calling on the BUSD Board and Superintendent to Consider Renaming Thousand Oaks Elementary to Kamala Harris Elementary School RECOMMENDATION Adopt a Resolution calling on the Berkeley Unified School District (BUSD) Board and Superintendent to consider initiating a process, pursuant to BUSD Board Policy and Administrative Regulation 7310, to rename Thousand Oaks Elementary School to Kamala Harris Elementary School in honor of Vice President-Elect Kamala Harris. BACKGROUND On Tuesday, November 3, 2020, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris were elected as the next President and Vice President of the United States, having received the largest number of votes in U.S. history. Vice President-Elect Harris is the first African American and Indian American woman to be elected to the Office of Vice President or President. Kamala Harris was born in 1964 to two graduate students at the University of California, Berkeley -- her mother, Shyamala Gopalan Harris, from India and father, Donald Harris, from Jamaica. As Senator Harris said in the speech accepting the Democratic Party’s nomination for Vice President, she “got a stroller’s-eye view” of the civil rights movement of the 1960s as her parents marched for justice in the streets of Berkeley. Kamala Harris grew up in West Berkeley and attended Thousand Oaks Elementary School in District 5. She was in the second class to be part of the Berkeley school integration program -- an innovative two-way busing plan designed to fully integrate Berkeley’s public schools.

Following is the article. __________ Announcing details of the historic agreement for full diplomatic relations between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday night hailed what he called a “new era of Israeli relations with the Arab world,” and said other deals with Arab countries would follow. He also insisted that he would continue to seek to extend Israeli sovereignty to parts of the West Bank land, in coordination with the US, but acknowl- edged that his plan for unilateral annexation was being temporarily halted, in line with the joint statement issued by the US, Israel and the UAE which spec- ified that Israel would “suspend” the move.
