Kamala Harris is trying to take identity politics out of presidential politics, aspiring to be the first post-gender POTUS, willing to sidestep such discussions.
Harris's narrative includes her mother's encouragement and her best friend's sexual abuse as transformative moments, shedding light on her motivations beyond identity.
Even though Harris is the first Black woman and first South Asian major party nominee, she consciously avoided emphasizing her historic candidacy during her speech.
Voters are weary of assessing candidates on gender and race, reflecting a desire for more substance over the performative aspects of identity politics.
