“Diwali is a universal concept that transcends cultures. It is about being inspired by the relevance of
light over darkness, and shedding light in moments of darkness,” Vice-President Kamala Harris told the
gathering of more than a hundred Indian-Americans. https://www.tribuneindia.com/
diwali-
a point of reflection and a moment of reflection to consider the duality of life in terms of the balance
between darkness and light. And to celebrate the light. In that way, to think about what our role is and
what our role should be in elevating us out of the darkness, guided by the light,” she said.
“In the last few years, we have experienced a lot that has been about powerful forces trying to divide,
trying to focus on what they would suggest are dissimilarities when we all know that the vast majority
of us have so much more in common than what separates us,” she said.
“There are moments in our country right now where there are those who fight against democratic
principles. The principles upon which our nation was founded. Principles like freedom, liberty,” she said.
“And in these moments where we all have a keen awareness of the unfairness and the injustice of it all,
let us be guided by our knowledge that it is not new, that there will be moments like this, but that we
have the power to make a difference and to elevate any moment in a way that we feel and can see the
future and the possibility and all that is bright that the world allows when we have the ability to believe
in it,” Harris said.
