Vice President Kamala Harris unleashes in her new book “107 Days,” exposing how the Biden White House failed to protect her while Fox News launched relentless attacks. In the excerpt of the upcoming book, Harris recalls being thrown under the bus by her own team, castigated for a Selma speech that went viral, and left to fend off negative narratives about staff turnover and chaos. VP Harris reveals how she had to build her own infrastructure of support because she could not rely on the West Wing. Her account frames betrayal from within and hostility from outside as defining tests of her vice presidency, while positioning her as a leader who survived political fire and refuses to be silenced.

Bomb threats have forced multiple HBCUs into lockdown, a crisis leaders describe as part of an escalating antiblack agenda. Calls are growing for the FBI and Department of Justice to treat these incidents as domestic terrorism, warning that Black institutions and students are being viciously targeted. The climate of intimidation reflects what speakers called a historical escalation, with Black America increasingly under siege. Despite the threats, the message was clear: communities will not be intimidated and will continue to resist.
