Less than a month away from one of the most historic elections of our time, VP Kamala Harris sat poised and confident on the cover of Vogue’s October digital cover. As the presidential elect nears the finish line, she shares her views on the genocide happening in Palestine, the moment she learned of her presidential endorsement from President Joe Biden, her plans for the American people once she becomes president, and how a second term with Trump will uproot democracy.

VP Kamala Harris shares how she learned about her presidential endorsement from President Joe Biden

The presidential debate between President Joe Biden and Donald Trump left Americans feeling hopeless. President Biden’s performance indicated he wasn’t in the best shape for a second term, leaving the public feeling helpless. With minimal options, four more years of Trump felt inevitable. Then, on the morning of July 21, VP Harris received a phone call from the president that changed the trajectory of the election. After informing her that he was leaving the race and endorsing her, VP Harris gathered her team and got to work, restoring the optimism needed to navigate the next four years.

VP Harris on the war in Gaza

Most people stand behind VP Kamala Harris, but their opinions begin to falter once they hear her views on the war in Gaza. “Let me be clear, I will always stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself and I will always ensure Israel has the ability to defend itself,” she said in August during the National Democratic Convention.

“At the same time what has happened in Gaza in the past 10 months is devastating. So many innocent lives lost. The scale of suffering is heartbreaking,” she continued. But in her Vogue interview, VP Harris explains that the war isn’t as black or white as people think.

“There’s been a language and a conversation around what’s been happening, particularly around Israel and Gaza, that suggests that this is binary. It’s not,” she says. “You’re not either for this one or for that one.”

“On Oct. 7, 1,200 people were massacred, including hundreds of young people at a concert. Women were horribly raped,” she continues. “And far too many Palestinians have been killed.”

“You’re never going to have a complete agreement on all the issues. But you can find common ground—and expand that.”
