The #1 New York Times bestseller
From Vice President Kamala Harris, one of America's most inspiring political leaders, comes a book about the core truths that unite us and how best to act upon them. 
"A life story that genuinely entrances." —Los Angeles Times
“An engaging read that provides insights into the influences of [Harris’s] life...Revealing and even endearing.” —San Francisco Chronicle
The daughter of immigrants and civil rights activists, Vice President Kamala Harris was raised in an Oakland, California, community that cared deeply about social justice. As she rose to prominence as one of the political leaders of our time, 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. 
In The Truths We Hold, she 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.

      Listeners unfamiliar with Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris's life and career will find this audiobook a detailed introduction. The California senator is a seasoned public figure in politics, and her voice reflects her experience and knowledge. The audiobook is a hybrid of a traditional memoir and a political text, covering Harris's days growing up, her education at Howard University, her work as a district attorney general, and her current role as a congresswoman. Listeners are provided Harris's perspective on key issues, including the recent Supreme Court nomination hearings and immigration policy. Harris's insights into politics are likely what most listeners are seeking. Her resolve on the status of the current political climate comes through loud and clear: "We are better than this!"
