- Tim Walz brings up Amber Thurman, a Black woman who died because she could not access abortion care in her home state of Georgia. "How can we, as a nation, say that your life and your rights can be determined by...geography?" The answer: we can't. #VPDebate2024

This is the paradox that motivates Higher Heights #BlackWomenLeadBlack women are just getting started bit.ly/2KNBS4P
- Higher Heights for America recognizes Vice President @KamalaHarris as one of our Shirley Chisholm 2022 Sisters to Watch List! As the first woman, Black person, and South Asian, she is truly paving the way for more Black women leaders to lead this country to higher heights!

- Take a look at the crowd gathered to watch @KamalaHarris deliver her closing argument — and it was an effective one. From instating a ban on price gouging on groceries to capping the cost of insulin, she is the only candidate with a plan to make our lives better. #BlackWomenLead
