Vice President Kamala Harris captivated an audience of 26 million viewers during her acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention's fourth night. In a speech that touched on both personal and political issues, Harris shared the enduring lessons her mother taught her, which she credits for her success.

Harris highlighted her mother’s advice to “never complain about injustice but to do something about it.” She emphasized the importance of taking action, urging others to not let anyone define them, but to "show them who you are." She also shared her mother's insistence on always giving full effort, never doing anything "half-assed."

Shifting to the political landscape, Harris delivered a sharp critique of former President Donald Trump, particularly his influence on the U.S. Supreme Court. She accused Trump of handpicking justices with the intent of stripping away reproductive freedoms, stating bluntly, "They are out of their minds."

Harris also addressed the ongoing conflict in Gaza, expressing deep concern over the devastation that has unfolded there in the past 10 months. She called attention to the severity of the situation, underlining her commitment to justice and human rights on both national and international fronts.

The speech resonated with millions, setting a strong tone for the Democratic platform as the election season heats up.
