Kamala Harris made history as the first woman of color to be elected US vice-president. ‘It brings tears to my eyes and joy to my heart,’ said the former US national security adviser Susan Rice, while Atlanta’s mayor, Keisha Lance Bottoms, said: ‘She represents the best of us.’
Harris, who is of Indian and Jamaican heritage, is the first woman to be elected to such a position in the White House.
