Kamala Harris Wins The Internet With Her Walkout Song 'Work That' By Mary J.Blige
Her walkout song was, 'Work That' by the American singer-songwriter, and it was the same song that Harris walked off the stage of the Democratic National Convention to after becoming the first woman of colour to be nominated to a major political party's presidential ticket in the history of the United States.
It is a proud moment for women of colour around the world, especially in the United States, as Kamala Harris becomes the first African, and the first Indian-American woman to become the Vice President of the country.
While addressing the nation, Harris emphasized on how her victory is a win for all the women out there who have been fighting for equal rights for decades, and it is on their shoulders that she stands. She also said she will continue the hard work for equality, liberty and justice.
Kamala Harris was donning a white suit in honour of the women's suffragist movement and Mary J. Blige's tunes were her anthem.

"I hear you been running, from the beautiful queen, that you could be becoming," sings Mary J. Blige in Work That. "Just because the length of your hair ain't long, And they often criticize you for your skin tone, Wanna hold your head high, Cause you're a pretty woman... Read the book of my life, And see I've overcome it."
People cannot seem to get over the powerful moment and are raving about it on social media.

Kamala Harris. Walking out to Mary J Blige. I am so glad that my daughter will grow up her next 4 years with a Black and South Asian woman in leadership and a president who talks about gay and trans people. Who sees our family. It¡¯s a bare minimum but it¡¯s such a real one. pic.twitter.com/981VGMxqn5
