A tiny, lush-green Indian village is beaming with joy hours before its descendant, Kamala Harris, takes her oath of office and becomes the first woman, first woman of color and first person of South Asian descent to hold the U.S. vice presidency.

A banner featuring U.S. Vice President-elect Kamala Harris with a message wishing her the best is displayed in Thulasendrapuram, the hometown of Harris' maternal grandfather, south of Chennai, Tamil Nadu state, India, Wednesday, Jan. 20, 2021. The inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris is scheduled be held today.

Harris is set to make history as the first woman, first woman of color and first person of South Asian descent to hold the vice presidency. “We are feeling very proud that an Indian is being elected as the vice president of America,” said Anukampa Madhavasimhan, 52, a teacher.Harris’ grandfather moved to Chennai, the capital of Tamil Nadu state, decades ago. Harris’ late mother was also born in India, before moving to the U.S. to study at the University of California. She married a Jamaican man, and they named their daughter Kamala, a Sanskrit word for “lotus flower.

“For the next four years, if she supports India, she will be the president,” said G Manikandan, 40, who has followed her politically and whose shop proudly displays a wall calendar with pictures of Biden and Harris.

KamalaHarris don't forget: No Silicon Valley work visas for India, until India, shows the Afro-Indians 🇮🇳:The Siddi (Habshi) some respect. Members are descended from the Bantu peoples of the East African region. bhm

Brilliant 👍

Dem voters booted her before a single primary. She has zero likability. She slept her way to the WH.

_Politics Then twenty villagers gang râpèd a Swedish tourist.

Hi ImMrMeseeks LookAtMe All because she sucked off the right men at the right time

LOL wow the hypocrisy in the msm is astounding.

Genuflect much asshoed press

Even though she doesn't come from said indian village and didn't earn her position? Lines up for the nonstop dick sucking and pussy licking we'll get for the next 4 years.

Looks like communist propaganda. No, seriously

Thanks...just vomited in my mouth reading this fawning bullshit

Fawn more over the elites please. Lick their boots harder. This is what the people needs and wants over all else. Who needs food and healthcare if they can't praise their betters?

Lol

How do they feel about Kamala not acknowledging her Indian heritage until she was forced to?

Wipe your chins.

Not first woman of color... but, narrative, right? 😆

Glad to see something positive! Not sure if we are all beaming joy, but letting out a sigh of relief.

MAGA won’t like this
