#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - In her acclaimed memoir, former Vice President and Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris delivers "a life story that genuinely entrances" (Los Angeles Times) as she looks back on how she was shaped by the core truths that unite us.
"An engaging read that provides insights into the influences of [Harris's] life--most of all, her mother Shyamala Gopalan Harris, Ph.D., a breast cancer researcher . . . Revealing and even endearing." --San Francisco Chronicle The daughter of immigrants and civil rights activists, Vice President Kamala Harris was raised in an Oakland, California, community that cared deeply about social justice. As she rose to prominence as one of the political leaders of our time, her experiences would become her guiding light as she grappled with an array of complex issues and learned to bring a voice to the voiceless. In The Truths We Hold, she reckons with the big challenges we face together. Drawing on the hard-won wisdom and insight from her own career and the work of those who have most inspired her, she communicates a vision of shared struggle, shared purpose, and shared values as we confront the great work of our day.

Harris, Kamala
KAMALA HARRIS dedicou sua vida à segurança pública e aos direitos civis, e atualmente é a vice-presidente dos Estados Unidos. Iniciou sua carreira na promotoria do condado de Alameda e depois foi eleita promotora distrital de São Francisco. Como procuradora-geral da Califórnia, Kamala processou gangues transnacionais, grandes bancos, companhias de petróleo e lutou contra ataques à Lei de Proteção e Cuidado ao Paciente (Obamacare). Também batalhou para reduzir a evasão escolar, teve uma atuação pioneira ao expor as disparidades raciais no sistema de justiça criminal americano e implementou treinamento sobre preconceito implícito na força policial. Segunda mulher negra eleita para o Senado Americano e primeira a chegar à Vice-Presidência, Kamala Harris trabalhou para reformar o sistema de justiça criminal do país, aumentar o salário mínimo, tornar o ensino superior gratuito para a maioria dos americanos e proteger os direitos de refugiados e imigrantes. |
