About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Read the inspiring Sunday Times bestselling memoir from the first woman, and woman of colour, to serve as Vice President of the United States.

'A life story that genuinely entrances' Los Angeles Times

The daughter of immigrants and civil rights activists, Vice President-elect Kamala Harris was raised in a California community that cared deeply about social justice. As she rose to prominence as a political leader, her experiences would become her guiding light as she grappled with an array of complex issues and learned to bring a voice to the voiceless.

Now, in The Truths We Hold, Harris reckons with the big challenges we face together. Drawing on the hard-won wisdom and insight from her own career and the work of those who have most inspired her, she communicates a vision of shared struggle, shared purpose, and shared values as we confront the great work of our day.

Gripping with heart

Gripping and informative insight into Kamala's personal and professional journey via the American legal and political systems. Reads like a manifesto from the heart. A setting of intention.

Audible optimism

Never more so than know does the world need the good USA
The shadow of the last few years will take some expunging but Kamala Harris represents the decent side. Her story is one of strength, humour and heartbreak but she seems to possess an indomitable spirit. Listening to her book it is a message of hope and hard work
Thoroughly recommend... anything, anything is possible!

Very remarkable insight into what Kamala has done

Very impressive what Kamala has done todate within the American Legal system. Gives one an idea as to what has influenced Kamala. Shows love and compassion shine and that thinking of others and service to one's fellow brothers and sisters no matter the colour of ones skin one can go far. It's impressive worth a listen.
