Houston friends of Vice President Kamala Harris watch history in making
Friends of Vice President Kamala Harris were all smiles watching history unfold.
HOUSTON - History was made in America on Wednesday.
Many Houstonians watched the presidential inauguration with pride, including several friends of the new Vice President Kamala Harris. It’s larger than life for me. To have someone who has walked the same path that I walked, says Deidra Jackson, who held a watch party in Houston to celebrate. Both Harris and Jackson are Howard University graduates and members of the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority. It is just a tremendous day and I am full of pride, Jackson says.
