Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that The students at Hampton University in Big Blue Virginia are extremely excited to see Kamala Harris.
The vice president took questions from multiple members of student leadership including student elected Mr. Hampton, Sean Powell who asked what the government can do to curb gun violence.
“It resonates with me deep down, especially in schools, because I have three little sisters back home who have to worry about their safety every day in the public school system,” he told 10 On Your Side.
“This generation is critical to the urgent issues that are at stake right now for our future,” Harris said. “It is young leaders throughout America who know what the solutions look like and are organizing in their communities to make them a reality. My message to students is clear: We are counting on you, we need you, you are everything.”
Vice President Kamala Harris arrived in Hampton Roads for her Hampton University visit on Thursday.
She was greeted by Newport News Mayor Phillip Jones upon landing at the Newport News/Williamsburg International Airport.
Her appearance at the university marks the first stop of her nationwide “Fight for Our Freedoms College Tour,” in which she plans to rally and mobilize young adults to stand up for their fundamental rights.
These rights, as noted in a White House press release, include voting rights, gun safety, reproductive freedom and more.
