  • 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.

C’est présentée partrois femmes proches que Kamala Harris a accepté mercredi soir sa candidature historique à la vice-présidence des États-Unis, symbole de l'importance centrale de sa “famille moderne” dans la vie de celle qui aime se faire appeler “Momala” par les enfants de son mari.

  • 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.
