Historic VP Run Elevates Hopes at Alma Mater
Students at Howard University, a historically Black college, are inspired by Kamala Harris’s journey from their campus to the vice presidency. Many, like Serena Evans, who faced racism in predominantly white schools, see Harris’s success as a beacon for their own dreams. Harris’s connection to Howard boosts the university’s visibility, offering hope for more opportunities and recognition for its students. As one student put it, her success shows the world that “they can’t take us as a joke.”
