Kamala Harris takes the oath as US VP
January 20, 2021 22:17
Kamala Harris has just taken the oath of office.
She was sworn in by Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor.
This is the first time a woman, let alone a black and Asian American woman, has been inaugurated in one of the two highest positions in the US government.
She follows 48 men who have held the position of vice-president before her.
While I may be the first woman in this office, Harris vowed in her victory speech in November, I will not be the last, because every little girl watching tonight sees that this is a country of possibilities.
