Howard University in Washington, D.C., is well known for producing luminaries like Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall and author Toni Morrison. Now its students and alumni are turning attention to the person who could become their most famous graduate: Vice President Kamala Harris. Howard-aligned groups are raising money and doing grassroots work to help the Democratic nominee for president, who frequently has referenced her time at Howard as formative. If Harris wins the White House, she would be the first woman elected president and the first graduate of a historically Black college to hold that office.
