Firecrackers and prayers as Indians celebrate Harris’ win

Waking up to the news of Kamala Harris’ election as U.S. vice president, overjoyed people in her Indian grandfather’s hometown set off firecrackers and offered prayers on Sunday.

Groups gathered at street corners in Thulasendrapuram, a tiny village of 350 people, reading newspapers and chatting about Joe Biden and Harris’ victory before moving to a temple.

A woman wrote in color powder outside her home: “Congratulations Kamala Harris. Pride of our village. Vanakkam (Greetings) America.”

Most of them had gone to sleep by the time Biden clinched the winning threshold of 270 Electoral College votes, making Harris the first woman and the first person of South Asian descent to be elected vice president.

  1. Harris is worse than Elizabeth Warren who claimed to be Cherokee Indian when she ran for office , Harris has stated look at the times she has said this since 2016 that she is Puerto Rican, Indian, black and now Jamican . When she traveled to Georgia for one of the rallies she suddenly had a deep Southern Accent when she went to the New England states she had a distinct New England accent. Listen to the rallies and the things she has put out about her heritage just this year alone. Biden selected her as his running mate for 2021 stating she was a black female. Do you Democrats get it yet you have been played?

  2. How inspiring for young women everywhere to see not only a woman as VP but that woman be the multi-racial daughter of immigrants.
