On Wednesday, Kamala Harris will make history as she's sworn in as the nation's first female, Black, and South Asian American vice president.
Insider wants our readers to reflect on this unprecedented moment in American history — which takes place against the backdrop of a recent, violent insurrection, and a persisting threat of pro-Trump extremists heading to Washington, DC once again. But Harris's inauguration will take place under the watch of thousands of National Guard troops and behind a quickly-erected, city-wide fortress meant to stave off a repeat of January 6, when a racist, pro-Trump mob attacked the Capitol.
We want you to tell us how you'll experience her Inauguration — and how you think history should remember this moment — using the form below.
Nothing. Identity politics mean nothing to me. We are all Americans, period.
Another career politician thriving on identity politics
That by giving her so many descriptors she’s more like a mutt. How about she just be the newly elected Vice President of the United States Is that not enough? Does her legitimacy only count if you use an excess number of qualifiers? Just a thought..
Nothing
I feel no emotion, as I care little about her lineage but more on her policies and what will Harris and Biden do for Americans, from the homeless to the working class. From what I have seen, I am not confident these 4 years will bring 'peace and unity' as many claim.
Haven't heard much talk of this, but would they also be the 1st interracial couple? Just curious.
You can kickstart your political career by having a relationship with an older elected official
She still think Biden assaulted those women or no?
I hope Kamala Harris plays an active roll as VP, rather than what a lot of vp,s did which was sit around hoping something would happen to the president. She should use this time as an apprenticeship to becoming the first female president.

Identity politics sucks. is promoting racism by identifying people by their color and race. Something MLK, Malcolm X, Frederick Douglass and many other historical leaders advocated against. But to democrats and they are their pawns to power.
I represent myself; Fake Pamela Harris
“Everything” said the tears on my cheeks.
Not a damn thing!!
Zacofanie USA.
this is terrible news
Absolutely nothing

She is whiter than me. And she put an awfully lot of black people in jail for smoking pot. What did that moment mean to you? Seriously? I'm not joking? Is this all a game to Democrats? Because they seem to have no principles. Would Kamala have jailed crack smoking Hunter?
A VP so resoundingly rejected by the public she had to drop out of the DEM nomination race before a single vote was cast. The only reason she or Biden were elected was because the only other option was tRump/Pence.
Just hate her She is not an Indian by far She is nobodys
It means equality, it means freedom from Republican narcism, it means Change.
Made up stats, a lot of fake news, manipulated data and unethical behavior to justify biased and corrupted policies and decisions. All managed by the same people that fabricated the idea of such “wonderful and diverse leader”
It’s a turning point for America, one that is much needed. It brings tears to my eyes, tears of joy and also tears of sorrow because of what has happened over the last four years and how we got to this point. I’m so proud to call Miss Harris Madame Vice President.
She brought down California. Now she will bring down the Country
she also presided over a same-sex marriage as AG of California Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!
That there will be a strong CALIFORNIAN influence and impact which will bring a smart and tough and sunshine accent to all of the US! VIVA LA CALIFORNIE! 🌹🌊🌹
I would define it as “I’m not impressed”.
She has brought no peace or unity when antifa and BLM were destroying cities and businesses over the last several months. “They’re not going to stop, this is a movement”
Meh
You have already defined her by the color of her skin and the nature of her origin, tell us more.....curious of what you think!!!
Nothing! She’s not black! Her and Joe Biden made careers locking up black men!
Success
Hope she becomes a good leader
Basically she is BI-RACIAl.. The first female Biracial Vice President.
How's Gitmo sound. Coming soon to a theater near U
The stock market is about to tank?
How profound was it and what difference it has made to the USA when Obama became POTUS!!! Exactly. And with Kamala, it will be just another aesthetic change because people are still judged by their color and their gender and not but what they can offer. DontShootTheMessenger
Insanity. Liberal hypocrisy. Has nothing to do with race but everything to do with what she’s said and her track record.
I would define it as 'I DONT GIVE A FUCK!'
As fake as her laugh
More profound is that is the first female, period. God has bless us all with this. 🗽💫KamalaHarris
But we’ve already had a black President...
