"Former Vice President Kamala Harris has yet to decide if she'll run for president in 2028. She's also not going to dish on her former boss, Joe Biden. And her advice for a Brown-skinned person just getting into politics? There will be many situations when you walk into a meeting room and no one looks like you. Keep your chin up, your shoulders back and remember - all of us have your back."
"'All of us' referred to the cheering, sold-out crowd at the Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles on Tuesday evening who'd come to see the former Democratic presidential candidate speak about her new book, the election-campaign memoir "107 Days." The chanted "Kamala!" "Kamala!" as she walked on stage. The outbursts of adoration continued for the next hour in eruptions of applause and supportive shout-outs ("We love you!") as she spoke about everything from the need to pass Proposition 50."
Kamala Harris spoke to a sold-out Los Angeles crowd at the Wiltern Theatre while promoting her memoir "107 Days" on a multi-city tour that included New York and London. The event was moderated by Kerry Washington and drew attendees who paid $55 to $190 for tickets. Harris said she has not decided whether to run for president in 2028 and refused to criticize Joe Biden. She recounted the whirlwind 107 days between Biden withdrawing and becoming the Democratic nominee, reflected on the Nov. 5 loss to Donald Trump, advocated for Proposition 50, and offered encouragement to Brown-skinned newcomers in politics.
