This brightly hued cotton bandana is a celebration of Kamala Harris, her accomplishments, and the lineage and milestones that are part of her story. In designing this amazing piece, the black woman business owner and creator of this beautiful artwork considered Harris’ Indian and Jamaican heritage, her upbringing, education at Howard University, public service, symbols for justice, democracy and change, as well as new title and role as VP all as charms on a fantastic charm bracelet. Culminating as the captivating design on a charming bandana, this work which originated in Washington, D.C., is a true delight that makes a beautiful gift or a lovely treasure to keep for yourself. 

A first generation American born to immigrant, activist parents, Kamala Harris is a trailblazer. She is the first woman, the first Black American, and the first South Asian American to be elected as vice president of the United States, the second-highest leadership position in our nation’s government. Throughout her distinguished career and lifetime of public service, these pioneering firsts were also the case with the offices she held as the District Attorney of San Francisco, the Attorney General of California and as a United States Senator.

While she is guided by the words she spoke the first time she stood up in court: “Kamala Harris, for the people”, the Vice President is also reminded of her great responsibility, with these words from her mother, who was also an inspiring woman: “Kamala, you may be the first to do many things, but make sure you are not the last.”
