Scott Mc Kiernan Presents a SPECIAL EDITION zReportage by Pulitzer prize winning ZUMA Press photographer Carol Guzy: ‘KAMALA’. In January 2021, Kamala Harris made history as the first woman, the first Black American, and the first South Asian American to serve as Vice President of the United States. She also made history as the first Black woman and the first South Asian woman to be a major political party’s nominee for president. Harris, born October 20, 1964, is the older daughter of Donald J. Harris, an economist from Jamaica, and Shyamala Gopalan, a breast cancer researcher from India. She has one sister, Maya Harris, and a niece, Meena Harris. In 2014, Harris married California lawyer Doug Emhoff, who has two children from his previous marriage, Cole and Ella. And a note on her name: Kamala is pronounced ‘comma-la,’ and it means lotus flower. As she writes in her memoir, The Truths We Hold, ‘A lotus flower grows underwater, its flower rising above the surface while its roots are planted firmly in the river bottom.’ . www.zreportage.com/zReportage.html?num=zrep962 . #zumapress #zreportage #reportage #journalism #photojournalism #photostory #kamala #kamalaharris #vpharris
