While I may be the first woman in this office, I will not be the last: Kamala Harris in first speech

Wilmington: Kamala Harris accepted her place in history on Saturday night with a speech honouring the women who she said “paved the way for this moment tonight”, when the daughter of Jamaican and Indian immigrants would stand before the nation as the vice-president-elect of the United States.

She entered the stage to the song "Work That" by Mary J Blige, wearing the all-white suit and donning the black mask. She has broken many glass barriers by becoming the first woman and Indian American to be elected as the US vice president.

"While I may be the first woman in this office, I will not be the last," Harris said to cheers outside the Chase Center in Wilmington, Delaware. "Every little girl that's watching tonight sees that this is a country of possibilities."
