This article is from Harris's videographer's perspective and the behind-the-scenes example of empowerment that we can all follow.

"Vice President Harris never called a little girl cute or commented on her outfit; instead, she’d say, 'You look like the smartest person in your class.' The vice president would say, 'Let me hear you say, "I am a leader,"' and even the youngest girls would say it back. I filmed hundreds of clips of Kamala Harris telling young people to believe in themselves because they can achieve anything. And I noticed myself changing my conversations with my nieces, stopping myself from commenting on their outfits and asking instead about the thoughts in their heads."
