“It’s really a moment of great pride for us to finally to be represented,” Kalpana Saxena said.   

Vice President Harris has spoken proudly of her Black, Caribbean and also Indian heritage.  Kalpana Saxena is of Indian descent.  She’s been teaching in New Orleans for decades and believes the 49th Vice President is an inspiration during a time of division.     

“It’s the moment when every girl, no matter what your age, size, ethnicity, you just feel like you can do it,” Saxena said. 

 “We saw it happen with the election of President Obama, but I think for us as women, it is an indication that the glass ceiling literally has been shattered,” Yolanda Page said.

Page is the vice president of academic affairs at Dillard University, part of the network of historically black colleges and universities in the U.S.  Page says it’s remarkable that there was a time a woman like Rosa Parks could only sit in the back of the bus and now a woman of color holds a seat second only to the President. 

“I have an 11-year-old daughter.  This represents for her that she too one day can be like Kamala Harris,” Page said.

Four years ago, those red “Make America Great Again” hats seemed to be everywhere.  For this inauguration, there’s a different fashion trend. The hashtag “chucks and pearls” is all over social media.  It’s a nod to the Vice President’s fondness of pearls throughout the years and the Chuck Taylor sneakers she often wore on the campaign trail. 

The mayor of New Orleans wore that combination on Wednesday.  A show of support in a sisterhood of color.

I’m beyond excited – over the moon. I just can’t stop smiling,” Wilson said. “I hope it just means we can continue to progress and move forward and to continue to shatter glass ceilings. I don’t think all the obstacles have been overcome, but I think this is a tremendous first step.”

In the shadow of the women’s rights pioneers monument featuring Sojourner Truth, Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton that commemorates the centennial of the ratification of the 19th amendment, which gave women the right to vote, Gainer chatted with people about the very first madam vice president.

“It makes a lot of sense to be interviewed in front of that statue,” said Arlene Wachtel.

“It should’ve happened a long time ago, but that it’s happening now is a wonderful thing,” said Jennifer Perry.

“We’re moving in the right direction,” one man said.

A direction many never thought they’d actually see, soon to be a history lesson never taught before in a U.S. classroom.

“For the last couple of years, students at Fordham, like at every other university in America, have been talking about feminism and about the place that women play in creating a more just and fair society,” said Prof. Beth Knobel of Fordham University. “There are so many things she represents about women in politics, about people of color in politics, about change and about healing in American politics.”

Americans aren’t the only ones celebrating this monumental first.

Residents of an Indian village, where Harris’ grandfather was born more than 100 years ago, cheered as she took her oath of office.

Josie Cox just moved here from overseas.

“It’s an absolute benchmark in history. It’s wonderful that we’re going to have her as a role model for so many girls and women around the world,” Cox said.

She’s the first, but many vow she won’t be the last.
