She is close to her relatives in India
Harris visited India multiple times with her mother. She loved spending time there, with her grandfather and his buddies on their morning walk along the beach. Even in those free times, they used to talk about important subjects such as democracy and civil rights.
In 2019, at a Democratic Party Convention, she said that she comes from a family of fighters.
Her sister is a close political advisor
Maya Harris is Kamala’s younger sister. Maya follows with admiration Kamala’s steps into the political world and she often speaks about how proud she is of her sister’s achievements.
She was the campaign chairwoman for Harris’s presidential bid and the two are very close.
“I think most people who know Maya will tell you she’s one of the smartest people they know,” Kamala said in an interview with Politico. “The fact that she has volunteered to work on this campaign at such a high level, and she’s exactly who she’s always been – she works around the clock and she’s probably the hardest if not one of the hardest working people on the campaign – I feel very blessed.”
In 2020 when Kamala Harris joined Joe Biden in the political campaign, Maya insisted that people should discover their mother’s life to understand who Kamala really is and what she can do for the United States.
