Summary

Charyzmatyczna， skuteczna i pełna pasji。 Pierwsza kobieta w historii na stanowisku wiceprezydentki Stanów Zjednoczonych Ameryki。 W czasie ostatniej kampanii prezydenckiej media mówiły tylko o niej: gorącej orędowniczce praw osób LGBT， kobiet i mniejszości etnicznych。 W oka mgnieniu stała się uosobieniem walki o prawa człowieka dla milionów ludzi， również poza USA。

Kamala Harris w swojej karierze niejednokrotnie dała się poznać jako twarda， zdecydowana negocjatorka。 Jako prokuratorka zawsze stawała po stronie ofiar。 Stanowczo potępiła działania policji po śmierci George’a Floyda， kiedy Ameryką zawładnęły protesty pod hasłem #blacklivesmatter。 Dziś staje się symbolem nadziei na koniec rządów populistów na całym świecie。

Jestem niestety rozczarowana。 Zastanawiałam się nad niższą oceną jednak mimo wszystko jest to sprawnie przetłumaczona biografia niezwykłej kobiety i mimo wszystko coś tam po sobie pozostawia。 Rozczarowanie bo mało w tej książce o Kamali samej Kamali。 Brak śladów i motywów postępowania， faktorów które pozwoliły jej zostać tym kim została。 Co ją ukształtowało？ Kim była i jest jako osoba？ Tego się nie dowiemy。 Nie będzie to lektura dla tych kobiet， które chciałyby się zainspirować i zmotywować。 To Jestem niestety rozczarowana。 Zastanawiałam się nad niższą oceną jednak mimo wszystko jest to sprawnie przetłumaczona biografia niezwykłej kobiety i mimo wszystko coś tam po sobie pozostawia。 Rozczarowanie bo mało w tej książce o Kamali samej Kamali。 Brak śladów i motywów postępowania， faktorów które pozwoliły jej zostać tym kim została。 Co ją ukształtowało？ Kim była i jest jako osoba？ Tego się nie dowiemy。 Nie będzie to lektura dla tych kobiet， które chciałyby się zainspirować i zmotywować。 To nie jest książka o której można opowiadać córkom na dobranoc， żeby pokazywać im postaci które zmieniają świat。 Jest to opowieść o Kalifornii i Ameryce którym przytrafiła się Kamala。 A że się przytrafiła to autor postanowił napisać o tym książkę。 Niestety tylko tyle。 。。。more

This was pretty good。 It wasn't the best writing style， but I feel like I learned some things。 I was sometimes distracted by the sort of pseudo commentary that would be at the end of a section。 This was pretty good。 It wasn't the best writing style， but I feel like I learned some things。 I was sometimes distracted by the sort of pseudo commentary that would be at the end of a section。 。。。more

Too rushedThis book had an incredible opportunity to focus on the historical positions and campaigns Kamala has been a part of， but instead focused too much on the positions around her， and her perceived missteps。

Ich hatte die Wahl zwischen dieser Biografie und der Autobiografie von Kamala selbst und habe mich bewusst gegen die Autobiografie entschieden， weil ich ein möglichst ehrliches Bild von dieser Person haben wollte und das konnte ich mir bei einer Autobiografie und dann auch noch von einer Politikerin nun wirklich nicht vorstellen。 Das war leider auch mein einziger Gedanke beim Kauf dieses Buches， großartig recherchiert habe ich nicht mehr und das hat sich als Fehler erwiesen。 Denn wenn ich recher Ich hatte die Wahl zwischen dieser Biografie und der Autobiografie von Kamala selbst und habe mich bewusst gegen die Autobiografie entschieden， weil ich ein möglichst ehrliches Bild von dieser Person haben wollte und das konnte ich mir bei einer Autobiografie und dann auch noch von einer Politikerin nun wirklich nicht vorstellen。 Das war leider auch mein einziger Gedanke beim Kauf dieses Buches， großartig recherchiert habe ich nicht mehr und das hat sich als Fehler erwiesen。 Denn wenn ich recherchiert hätte， hätte ich herausgefunden， dass Dan Morain nie ein Interview mit Kamala Harris oder Angehörigen geführt hat， zumindest nicht für diesen Zweck。 In seiner Funktion als Redakteur verschiedener Zeitungen hat er sie schon das ein oder andere Mal interviewt， diese Interviews hatten aber ganz andere Hintergründe und sind teilweise schon etwas älter。 Seine Informationen zieht Morain aus diversen Berichten， Zeitungsartikeln und - ich fasse es immer noch nicht - ihrer eigenen Autobiografie！ Allein im ersten Kapitel zitiert er VIER MAL aus ihr！ Ja toll， dann hätte ich ja genau so gut die lesen können。 Auch ihre Social Media Kanäle werden gerne mal zitiert， wie seriös man diese Quellen finden möchte sei mal dahingestellt。 Schließlich sind alle auf Instagram， Twitter und Co。 ja auch immer so ehrlich ;）Als ich mir das Quellenverzeichnis dann genauer angesehen habe， ist mir dann auch folgendes aufgefallen: In dieser 365 Seiten Biografie werden ganze 23 Mal seine eigenen Zeitungsartikel als Quelle genannt。 Seine Tätigkeit als Journalist möchte ich damit natürlich nicht in Frage stellen， merkwürdig kommt mir das aber schon vor。 Auf mich macht dieses Buch leider den Eindruck， einfach nur Geld machen zu wollen。 。。。more

Harris was energetic， willing to take tough cases， laser-focused， driven to be successful。

Hope Duryea ，

It was such a choppy read。 Not smooth at all。

Bleh。 It was dull。 If you want to learn more about her， read her book instead， that one was much better。

Journalist Dan Morain provides a clear cut look at Kamala Harris， and her rise through the California justice system as a tough as nails prosecutor and her transition into politics as the first Black female attorney general in California history， U。S。 Senator， and her short lived run for POTUS， and landing on her feet to become Joe Biden's pick as his running mate as Vice-President。 Insightful read， and a behind the scenes look at the person when the lights and camera are turned off。 Journalist Dan Morain provides a clear cut look at Kamala Harris， and her rise through the California justice system as a tough as nails prosecutor and her transition into politics as the first Black female attorney general in California history， U。S。 Senator， and her short lived run for POTUS， and landing on her feet to become Joe Biden's pick as his running mate as Vice-President。 Insightful read， and a behind the scenes look at the person when the lights and camera are turned off。 。。。more

Czasami lubię wskoczyć w literaturę amerykańską， a "Kamala Harris" to bardzo dobry przykład takiej literatury。 Dan Morain bardzo dobrze prowadzi czytelnika przez kolejne etapy życia Kamali。 Poznając bliżej panią Harris stwierdzam， iż jest rekinem politycznym， walcząca o sprawy ważne i ważniejsze， nieodpuszczająca， trzymająca się swoich poglądów。 Jeśli tylko jej kariera nadal będzie się rozwijać może zajść na sam szczyt。。 Czasami lubię wskoczyć w literaturę amerykańską， a "Kamala Harris" to bardzo dobry przykład takiej literatury。 Dan Morain bardzo dobrze prowadzi czytelnika przez kolejne etapy życia Kamali。 Poznając bliżej panią Harris stwierdzam， iż jest rekinem politycznym， walcząca o sprawy ważne i ważniejsze， nieodpuszczająca， trzymająca się swoich poglądów。 Jeśli tylko jej kariera nadal będzie się rozwijać może zajść na sam szczyt。。 。。。more

My son got me this for me for my birthday， or I'm not sure I would have read it。 It is not her autobiography， but a biography by a reporter who has followed her for a long time。 I found it to be very dry and impersonal。 I wanted to learn more about her as a person rather than a politician。 There were some interesting parts like how she took on Backpage。com。 But overall， it was just OK。 My son got me this for me for my birthday， or I'm not sure I would have read it。 It is not her autobiography， but a biography by a reporter who has followed her for a long time。 I found it to be very dry and impersonal。 I wanted to learn more about her as a person rather than a politician。 There were some interesting parts like how she took on Backpage。com。 But overall， it was just OK。 。。。more

„Das sind wir nicht。 Wir Amerikaner wissen， dass wir besser sind。 Aber wir müssen es unter Beweis stellen。“ （Zitat）Spätestens seit der letzten Präsidentschaftswahl im Jahr 2020 ist der Name „Kamala Harris“ auch der größten politikverdrossenen Person ein Begriff。 Kamala Harris， die erste weibliche und schwarze Vizepräsidentin hat damit ein neues Kapitel in der amerikanischen Geschichte eröffnet， und ich denke， es wird nicht das letzte Kapitel ihres Werdegangs bleiben （dem zuvor schon viele vorang „Das sind wir nicht。 Wir Amerikaner wissen， dass wir besser sind。 Aber wir müssen es unter Beweis stellen。“ （Zitat）Spätestens seit der letzten Präsidentschaftswahl im Jahr 2020 ist der Name „Kamala Harris“ auch der größten politikverdrossenen Person ein Begriff。 Kamala Harris， die erste weibliche und schwarze Vizepräsidentin hat damit ein neues Kapitel in der amerikanischen Geschichte eröffnet， und ich denke， es wird nicht das letzte Kapitel ihres Werdegangs bleiben （dem zuvor schon viele vorangingen）。Ihre Geschichte wirft uns zu Beginn in die Wahlnacht als sie zur Senatorin und Trump zum Präsidenten gewählt wurde。 In dem Buch erfahren wir von Kindheitserinnerungen， ihrem beruflichen Werdegang， Hürden und Erfolge， Verbindungen zu Politiker*innen und Geldgeber*innen， Erzählungen über ihre Familie und ihre Wurzeln。 Wie sie sich in dem politischen Haifischbecken mit und ohne Unterstützung hochgearbeitet hat。 Eine Frau， die scheinbar wie ein Duracell-Hase an ihren Prinzipien， Werten und Umsetzungen arbeitet。 Ich würde wirklich gerne mal mit ihr auf einen Kaffee gehen！ Die ungefilterte und auch humorvolle Art， wie sie sich beschreibt oder über sich und ihr Tun schreibt， hat mich sehr fasziniert。 Verstärkt haben dies auch noch Erzählungen von persönlichen Erlebnissen von ihr nahestehenden Personen， die auch sie sehr geprägt haben。Ihr Antrieb in ihrem eigenen Land Verbesserungen durchzusetzen: Chapeau！ Ihre persönliche und politische Haltung zu wichtigen Themen hat sie nie aus den Augen gelassen und in ihrem Tun， aus meiner Sicht， auch durchgezogen。 Das Buch kam bei mir nie als „rosarot“ an， denn sie verzichtet darin auch nicht， kritische Themen über sich selbst anzumerken。 Bspw。 als sie als Oberstaatsanwältin massiver medialer Kritik ausgesetzt war und man sie als Opportunistin bezeichnete。 Oder als sie sich einst gegen die Legalisierung von Cannabis einsetzte und nun doch als Befürworterin auftritt。Zusätzlicher Bonus: die Informationen über die amerikanischen Prozesse in der Politik und der historische Kontext。 Was muss ich tun， um da und dort weiterzukommen？ Welche Ämter muss ich vorher innehaben？ Welche Personen， in welchen Ämtern， muss ich unterstützen？ Und wer davon muss mich unterstützen？ Wie hängen Geldgeber im politischen Gefüge mit drin？ Woher bekomme ich meinen Gelder für den Wahlkampf？ Die Biografie gibt Einblicke in das Leben einer toughen Frau， von der man sicherlich viel lernen kann。 Perfekt ist niemand， auch eine Kamala Harris nicht。 Und das machte für mich das Lesen auch so spannend und sie als Person authentisch。 。。。more

Excellent and insightful account of some of the driving forces that motivate Kamala Harris， our Vice President。 Kamala's way is not the easy way。 It is thoughtful and purposeful。 She is a strong woman， make no mistake about that。 She is also an ethical person。 Make no mistake about that either。 Because of its relatively short length and the tightness of the author's writing， this is easy and quick to read。 Compelling reading。 I highly recommend this book。 Excellent and insightful account of some of the driving forces that motivate Kamala Harris， our Vice President。 Kamala's way is not the easy way。 It is thoughtful and purposeful。 She is a strong woman， make no mistake about that。 She is also an ethical person。 Make no mistake about that either。 Because of its relatively short length and the tightness of the author's writing， this is easy and quick to read。 Compelling reading。 I highly recommend this book。 。。。more

I'm not a fan of Kamala Harris。 Dan Morain obviously is。 That's fair。 I will concede happily that she has good qualities and has done good things。 However， Morain's unrelenting support for her throughout the book grows irritating。 He quite simply has nothing bad to say about her。 He bends over backward to explain away facts inconvenient to Harris's perfection。 And of course， he acts as if liberal viewpoints on most issues are plain common sense。Heck， that's not even my main complaint。 Weighing i I'm not a fan of Kamala Harris。 Dan Morain obviously is。 That's fair。 I will concede happily that she has good qualities and has done good things。 However， Morain's unrelenting support for her throughout the book grows irritating。 He quite simply has nothing bad to say about her。 He bends over backward to explain away facts inconvenient to Harris's perfection。 And of course， he acts as if liberal viewpoints on most issues are plain common sense。Heck， that's not even my main complaint。 Weighing in at a measly 230 pages of actual text， the book doesn't really justify its own existence。 Biographies don't have to be long， but if they're short， they had better be really good。 This isn't。 Mere paragraphs are dedicated to topics that ought to have several pages， and easily could have several pages。 The information is almost never more than surface level。 Occasionally， Morain， randomly inspired to provide extra detail， will zero in on people like Willie Brown and Kimberly Guilfoyle。 Those people never really show up again in the book， and the extra information he gives isn't really pertinent to anything he's been saying。Morain didn't interview Harris for the book。 He explains this by saying she was too busy running for Vice-President， which is suspect。 Interviews are one of the things that candidates for office do。 After all， Joe Biden found time to sit down with Evan Osnos for Joe Biden。 But whatever。 Instead， Morain draws heavily from Harris' autobiography， The Truths We Hold。 Do yourself a favor and just read that， uninterrupted by Morain， if you are interested in Harris。Finally， the book ends before the conclusion of the 2020 election。 Yet it was published in 2021 - so clearly it wasn't intended as a resource for voters （unlike say， The Real Romney）。 And yet， it can't have been intended as a celebration of Harris's victory， since she had not yet won when he finished the book。 So what was the point of writing it？This is Morain's first book， and it shows。 It is limited in its scope， biased in its presentation， and unable to shed any new light on Harris。 There are many things to be written about Kamala Harris， and she deserves to be written about。 Though this book is not it， her definitive biography will eventually be written。 I look forward to reading it。 。。。more

In the author's notes， he reveals that a publisher was looking for a writer to crank out a book on Kamala Harris。 Morain， a longtime reporter for the LA Times and the Sacramento Bee， ended up being that writer。 He rushed to get this book produced during the 2020 campaign， so never interviewed Harris or others who knew her best。 Therefore， readers won't get many personal glimpses into her -- although there are several anecdotes that demonstrate her warmth and caring are real。 Instead， this book c In the author's notes， he reveals that a publisher was looking for a writer to crank out a book on Kamala Harris。 Morain， a longtime reporter for the LA Times and the Sacramento Bee， ended up being that writer。 He rushed to get this book produced during the 2020 campaign， so never interviewed Harris or others who knew her best。 Therefore， readers won't get many personal glimpses into her -- although there are several anecdotes that demonstrate her warmth and caring are real。 Instead， this book chronicles her fast rise in California politics。That being said， I found this book fascinating。 Lots of insights into California politics and those in its orbit。 。。。more

Thank heavens， I’ve finished this dreadful book。 It was like reading a 225-page resume。 The only things I learned about “Kamala’s Way” were: She can be very nice to people she likes （i。e。， Democrats）， she can be very mean to people she doesn’t like （i。e。， Republicans）， and she’s the maddening sort of politician who runs for office not because she （or he） wants that job and the opportunity to serve the good of all， but rather to get positioned for the next （higher） office and to continually adjus Thank heavens， I’ve finished this dreadful book。 It was like reading a 225-page resume。 The only things I learned about “Kamala’s Way” were: She can be very nice to people she likes （i。e。， Democrats）， she can be very mean to people she doesn’t like （i。e。， Republicans）， and she’s the maddening sort of politician who runs for office not because she （or he） wants that job and the opportunity to serve the good of all， but rather to get positioned for the next （higher） office and to continually adjust to prevailing political winds。 Oh， I also learned the proper way to pronounce her first name: COMma-la。 If you want to learn about Kamala Harris as a person， skip this book and find something published in The Atlantic， The New Yorker， Rolling Stone， or a similar publication that hires writers who actually know how to put together an interesting， readable personality profile。 。。。more

Nice overview with lots of specific cases （and situations） reviewed。 I would have liked more personal background。 What is evident （as it was in the case of Hillary Clinton）， strong women are threatening to white men。 Harris has a big heart and is full of passion。 She will be a joy to watch as Vice President。

Nancy Higgs ，

I enjoyed this book。 I didn’t know much about Kamala but I liked what I saw during the Presidential debates。 I thought she was the right choice for Joe Biden。 As others have said there is quite a bit of talk of California politics。 I did feel it was neutral。 I kept looking back to the author and wondered what was his purpose。 It certainly gives me an insight into our first woman VP。

Not knowing much about Kamala， I decided to read this book and learn more。 While I feel I have more knowledge of her than I did before， I still do not have a good grasp on who she is as a person。 The book was good in explaining her rise through politics， but it lacked personality。
