Back in 1986, Dallas attorney Jill Louis, VP Kamala Harris and 36 others at Howard University became members of the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority. With three months until Election Day, Louis says the novelty of their connection to her is secondary to the actual work.
Vice President Kamala Harris is expected to announce her running mate for the 2024 presidential election by Tuesday night.Tuesday, she'll also begin visiting seven traditional battleground states over five days. Meanwhile, Dallas attorney Jill Louis, who was a sorority sister of Harris, is helping with the vice president's campaign in North Texas.
"Louis explains their mission involves the work of individual sorority members. They are not acting on behalf of the sorority itself. She points to that same perspective when it comes to the influence of the Divine Nine, or the network of 9 historically Black sororities and fraternities."This is a continuation of that training ground, so we act in the same way. We’ve always been about civics and rights of people and uplift," Louis said.
