About this listen
“An engaging read that provides insights into the influences of [Harris’s] life—most of all, her mother Shyamala Gopalan Harris, Ph.D., a breast cancer researcher . . . Revealing and even endearing.” —San Francisco Chronicle
The daughter of immigrants and civil rights activists, Vice President Kamala Harris was raised in an Oakland, California, community that cared deeply about social justice. As she rose to prominence as one of the political leaders of our time, her experiences would become her guiding light as she grappled with an array of complex issues and learned to bring a voice to the voiceless.
In The Truths We Hold, she reckons with the big challenges we face together. Drawing on the hard-won wisdom and insight from her own career and the work of those who have most inspired her, she communicates a vision of shared struggle, shared purpose, and shared values as we confront the great work of our day.
Critic Reviews
“Its most memorable moments are those personal touches: Harris’s recollections of family, friendships and, above all, of her late mother, an Indian immigrant and cancer researcher who raised Harris and her younger sister . . . instructive for anyone trying to imagine a Vice President Harris.” —Carlos Lozada, The Washington Post
"A life story that genuinely entrances." —Los Angeles Times
“An engaging read that provides insights into the influences of Harris’s life.” —San Francisco Chronicle
“In an era when many of our current political memoirs are either looking back at the Obama years or are attempting to grapple with our current state of government unrest, it is exciting to see a highly respected and powerful woman of color and daughter of immigrants tell her own story and offer some hope for the future of our country.” —Bustle
