Kamala Harris' Sorority Sisters Are Riding Hard to See Her Become the First Alpha Kappa Alpha U.S. President



Even before President Joe Biden announced his exit from the 2024 race, Vice President Kamala Harris was hard at work shoring up support for the Democratic ticket. Since they officially kicked off their reelection campaign in April 2023, she’s been on the road reminding people of the damage another Trump presidency could have on our nation – including spending time wih members of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. (AKA)

Harris became a member of the country’s first historically African American sorority while a student at Howard University in 1986. Nearly 40 years later, she called on a room full of her sisters to help keep Donald Trump out of the White House.

....(snip)....

But never fear...the AKAs heard Harris’ words last week and took Biden’s endorsement of Harris on July 21 as a call to action and quickly got into formation to support their soror all the way to the White House.
