When Kamala Harris ascended to the vice presidency of the United States on Wednesday, becoming the first woman and also the first woman of colour to attain this high office, she paid tribute to Shirley Chisholm, the political trailblazer of Barbadian descent who was the first Black woman elected to the U.S. Congress.
Vice President Harris, who has Caribbean roots as the daughter of a Jamaican father and Indian mother, said in her inaugural address: “Shirley Chisholm created a path for me and for so many others.
Today, I’m thinking about her inspirational words, ‘I am, and always will be a catalyst for change’.”
