EMPOWERING FOR BOTH WOMEN & GIRLS AROUND THE WORLD
starrlight· Review provided by macys.com · July 26, 2024
This book is a book a young American girl who sees the social injustices in life and is determined to do something about it. Being raised and exposed to civil rights movement as a child gave her a first-hand look at the pain and injustice of those who are comprised and face many challenges in life. She demonstrated to all women and young girls everywhere that they too can help make a positive change. It is a must read and should be in every school library and every child and women home regardless of race, religion or politics! Young girls and women must know we can help make change for the better of mankind!!!
More Fiction than fact
Mgr047· Review provided by macys.com · September 2, 2024
Written to impress upon people that will take each page as gospel. It’s more fiction than fact, more half truths than her interview with CNN. No authenticity, a book that was written to and for people that can’t see or read between the fiction and none fiction aspects of whom she is and what she stands for. It’s to bad Macys is offering this book to their customers, it shows whom Macy’s is pandering too, keep inflation high and there soon will be less Macy’s because of Politician’s like Harris. A book filled with Joy but not reality, thankfully not everyone will be fooled and shame on Macys .
Who is Kamala Harris - and why are we antagonists?
RobMcK· Review provided by booktopia.com.au · April 19, 2021
As a typical right-leaning, Christian, western, privileged, white, male boomer I thought it important to find out who Kamala Harris is, where she came from and why we are supposedly antagonists. I give this book 4 stars because it mostly succeeded.

She seems like a decent enough Christian person who genuinely wants to 'right wrongs' and 'change the system' to make things better, particularly for the underprivileged. I agree with many of her views, particularly those on:
* Failure of the judicial and penal system
* Failure of Banks and mortgage scams
* Child truancy
* Profiteering drug companies and fraudulent doctors
* Corporate scams of any kind
* The real debate is about the role of Government in the modern world
* Cyber crime being a serious national security issue
* Water security (we should be more conservation conscious)

However I learned that the reason we are antagonists is that:
* She is a strong, left wing feminist SJW who finds it difficult to see things from another point of view.
* She is right, and anyone who does not agree with her is wrong (and is probably a bad person).
* She clearly dislikes Trump with a passion that possibly blinds her. (I suspect he represents all the things that I am and that her parents fought against in the 60's)
* Emotion trumps reality. If someone makes you feel bad then they are the problem, not you.
* She thinks Government should (force privileged people to) solve everyone's problems. (Eg: she was horrified that asylum seekers toilets were dirty.)
* She suspends reality when it suits. Eg: she supports 'implicit bias' training even though black people are also biased against black people.
* She believes "the system" is the cause of all problems, and she is focussed on fixing it - rather than fixing people. (She is essentially a lawyer.)

I also couldn't help the feeling that the book was written with the professional assistance of the Democratic party's PR team, so I can't help but wonder what was left out. That's the reason for only 4 stars.
The American Dream

Vice President Karmla Harris is an incredible writer. She learned how to stand up against injustice at a young age Thanks to both get activist parents. Karmla Harris is first generation American. As the daughter of immigrant parents she knows first hand how the struggles of being a minority. Karmla Harris had a successful track record as distract attorney of creating incentive programs for kids who were cutting school , etc. she is the voice for those who are voiceless. I loved reading her autobiography and admire her greatly.
