Kamala Harris was sworn in as the 49th Vice President of the United States on 20 January 2021. It was the first time a woman ranked to hold office as America’s vice president and second in command. History records Kamala is a woman who ranks first on many fronts. She is the first female vice president of the United States, she is the first AfricanAmerican to become vice president, and she is the first Asian American to become vice president. But these are not her only firsts.
