Sen. Kamala Harris — the first Black woman to be included on the presidential ticket of a major political party — will highlight the third day of the DNC on Wednesday evening.
Harris, the junior senator from California, will deliver the final speech of the evening on Wednesday, just over a week after former Vice President Joe Biden announced her as his running mate.
Harris will deliver her acceptance speech on a night with the theme, "A More Perfect Union." She'll also be closing out an evening with several other high-profile speakers.
Former President Barack Obama is slated to give the penultimate speech of the evening. On Monday, his wife Michelle delivered a stirring address on the convention's opening night — a speech that prompted a response from President Donald Trump.
Former Secretary of State and Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton is also slated to speak on Wednesday. Her remarks come a day after her husband, former President Bill Clinton, addressed the convention.
Wednesday's program will also feature comments from 2020 presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren and former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, who survived an assassination attempt in 2011.
The DNC events on Wednesday will address several topics relevant to Biden's platform: Gun control, climate change and women's equality.
