'She stood tall': Harris winds down campaign with moving tribute to her mom
Vice President Kamala Harris gets personal in what is likely the final ad for her 2024 campaign.
Oscar-winning actress Viola Davis narrates the ad while Beyonce’s “Freedom,” the campaign’s unofficial anthem, plays in the background. The clip opens with a shot of an infant being cradled by a mother.
“Something cracks open inside you when you become a mother,” Davis says. “You realize long after you're gone, these children will be your legacy. This mother came to America at 19 years old. She stood five feet tall, but she stood tall. Becoming a cancer researcher, birthing two daughters, Kamala and Maya, and, with them, she birthed her legacy.”
