Vice President Kamala Harris has broken her silence since being defeated by President-elect Donald Trump and she continued to be defiant.
“Did not grow weary,” she said of previous Americans who faced adversity. “Who faced setbacks, but did not give up. People who refused to let the light of America’s promise dim or burn out in moments of challenge. The movements for civil rights, women’s rights, workers’ rights. The United States of America itself would never have come to be if people had given up their cause after a court case or a battle or an election did not go their way. What Sasha wrote, and what we here know, is that in moments like this, the true test of our character is how resilient and persistent we are to pursue the future that we all can see.
“The true test of our commitment is whether, in the face of an obstacle, do we throw up our hands or do we roll up our sleeves. And as we approach, and as we then approach the end of this year, many people have come up to me telling me they feel tired, maybe even resigned. Folks who have said to me that they’re not sure whether they have the strength, much less the desire, to stay in the fight,” the vice president said.
“But let me be very clear. No one can walk away. No one can walk away. I ask of you this, that those here and anyone watching, that you will not walk away,” she said. “That you will stay true to your spirit and your sense of purpose. That you will continue to fight for the promise of America. And I ask you to remember the context in which you exist. Yeah, I did that. I ask you to remember that this struggle is not new,” she added.
“It goes back nearly 250 years to Lexington and Concord,” Harris continued. “Generation after generation, it has been driven by those who love our country, cherish its ideals, and refuse to sit passive while our ideals are under assault. And now this fight to keep the light of America’s promise and to ensure it burns bright, well this fight now, it continues with you. You are its heirs. We are its heirs.”
Harris then told her audience, with a knowing smile, “I ask you to remember the context in which you exist.” She paused and nodded, “Yeah, I did that. Uh huh,” then laughed.
