CONGRATULATIONS
I want to first say congratulations and job well done to our new President Elect, Joe Biden, and Vice President Elect, Kamala Harris, who is the very first woman, and woman of color to have been elected to this position. It is without a doubt that we take pride in our women of color, who have been the backbone and the support; and sometimes, the lead of our families. It is also an honor to know that Vice President Elect, Kamala Harris, has set and accomplished many milestones in her career as a graduate of a HBCU, Howard University, and a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Incorporated. Vice President Elect, Kamala Harris, was the first African American woman to represent San Francisco as their District Attorney and the first African American and Asian American to represent California as their State Attorney. She is also the second black woman and the first Asian American to serve as a senator. We applaud you and your efforts for giving our girls and women a vision, model, and a road map from which to work from and emulate.
To my D.A.T. E. young ladies and scholars, just know it all started with a foundation of education and believing in yourself. I challenge you all to continue to strive for success and to keep education at the forefront of your mission and goals, achieving and excelling at every moment. We are entrusting you to be the next leaders of today and tomorrow.
