Joe Biden and Kamala Harris made their first public appearance together today since Biden announced her as his pick for vice president. They live streamed the event from a high school gym in Wilmington, Delaware.

Harris will be the first Black woman, and the first South Asian American woman, to run on a major party’s ticket.
