GREENSBORO â Vice President Kamala Harris came to the Triad on Monday to promote the Biden Administrationâs ambitious American Jobs Plan.
The trip, with its high-speed motorcade, speech, plant tour and carefully-staged photo opportunities, had all the trappings of a campaign outing with the presidentâs first-term agenda at stake.
The full day of activity was not without moments of drama.
In the closing moments of a visit from the first African-American and Asian-American woman to be vice president, Harris made a surprise stop to the International Civil Rights Center & Museum to pay homage to the four N.C. A&T students who refused to leave an F.W. Woolworth lunch counter in downtown Greensboro more than 60 years ago, providing a spark to the civil rights movement.

Greensboro police arrested a juvenile and charged them with involuntary manslaughter and possession of a handgun by a minor.
A bipartisan state Senate bill would ban use of hand-held cellphones and other wireless devices while driving.
Senate Bill 20, titled Hands Free NC, was introduced Wednesday. The bill, if signed into law by Gov. Roy Cooper, would go into effect July 1.
It has as primary sponsors Republicans Jim Burgin of Johnson County and Kevin Corbin of Cherokee County, and Democrat Mike Woodard of Durham County. Republican Sen. Vickie Sawyer of Yadkin County is a co-sponsor.
Burgin said the bill contains several elements from House Bill 144 from 2019, also titled Hands Free NC, as well as language from a similar bill that passed the Republican-controlled Georgia legislature.
