The Truths We Hold
The Truths We Hold is a compelling non-fiction memoir that traces Kamala Harris’s path from Oakland’s neighborhoods to national leadership. Part personal story, part policy guide, it speaks to readers who want to understand how justice, courage, and service translate into real-world change. With an inspiring yet grounded voice, the book invites adults and engaged young readers to explore the power of standing up for what’s right.
Written with clarity and warmth, The Truths We Hold unfolds through experiences that blend narrative with concrete examples. Harris describes her early life as the daughter of immigrants, her work as a deputy district attorney, and her time as San Francisco’s district attorney, weaving in the moments that shaped her approach: thoughtful, data-driven decision-making and a belief in “smart on crime” rather than old, punitive rhetoric. The foreclosure crisis settlement she helped secure in California illustrates how principled leadership can deliver real, tangible progress.
Across health care, immigration, national security, the opioid crisis, and growing inequality, Harris shows how complex systems can be understood and improved with clarity, empathy, and persistence. The Truths We Hold pairs insightful analysis with accessible storytelling, making policy feel relevant to everyday life and empowering readers to consider their own role in building a fairer society.

- Accessible, clear writing that invites careful reflection and action
After finishing The Truths We Hold, readers gain a clearer understanding of how personal values translate into public impact, feeling inspired to engage in their communities and stand up for what’s right.
