When nine-year-old Liya Lyttle of Baldwin, New York, watched Kamala Harris take the oath of office to become the 49th vice president of the United States, she knew she had to write a letter.
Dear Ms. Harris,
I am just like you and your family. My dad is Jamaican, and my mom is Indian. I have a sister too. I can’t believe you are the first Black vice president. I love your speeches. I am glad you and Biden won. Have a wonderful day.
