How Vice President Kamala Harris got started in politics
Fox News
Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris was born in Oakland, California, to professor parents and got involved in politics after finishing law school.
Harris came from a learned household. She was born in Oakland, California, to an Indian-born mother and a Jamaican-born father. Both were professors — one at Berkeley, the other at Stanford. Harris' parents divorced when she was 7. Following her parents' split, she moved to Illinois, then to Quebec, Canada, alongside her sister and mother. William La Jeunesse joined FOX News Channel (FNC) in March 1998 and currently serves as a Senior National Correspondent.
After high school, Harris attended Howard University, where she joined the debate team and claimed to demonstrate "almost every weekend." Later, she attended Hastings College of Law, where, like many of her classmates, she failed her first attempt at the California bar exam, but she passed the second time.
