Would you like to know more about Kamala Harris than just her political figure? Let’s see how her childhood shaped her into the strong persona of today.
Before being a politician, she was a daughter. Her parents are Donald Harris and Shyamala Gopalan, who met as two immigrant students at the University of California, Berkeley.
Her mom was an Indian who chose to break the arranged marriage tradition and wed Donald Harris, who has Jamaican roots.
They got married while they were still students. When she was pregnant, Shyamala Golapan worked until she went into labor, and Kamala Harris was born in Oakland.
