Meena Harris is the niece of US Vice President Kamala Harris and the former is eminently known for being a great time social media influencer, a lawyer, cybersecurity attorney, and an entrepreneur. Every now and then, Meena had been using her aunt Kamala’s fame to propel her own personal brand. However, now that Kamala Harris has entered into the White House, Meena may soon need to change her habituated agenda.

Today, White House legal team has cautioned Meena Harris not to “build her brand” by using the name of the US Vice President. “Some things can’t be undone. That being said: Behaviour needs to change,” the White House official quoted. The vice President’s associates are reportedly worried about the ethical aspects of the promotional pattern being used by Meena Harris.

Four years ago in 2017, Meena Harris started a company that sells socially conscious T-shirts and sweatshirts. It is reported that Meena Harris used Kamala Harris’ name to get publicity while promoting her brand. She reportedly used her aunt’s image ‘Vice-President Aunty’ on a T-shirt and some political slogans to produce clothing, videos, children’s books and headphones. Also, a few Kamala Harris-themed swimsuits were produced.

Meena is the author of children’s books, including one titled “Kamala and Maya’s Big Idea”. Even her latest book, “Ambitious Girl,” was released the night before Kamala Harris was sworn in as the first female vice president in the White House. Soon after US President Joe Biden and VP Kamala Harris won the election, her team’s ethics lawyers told Meena Harris that she needs to stop producing clothing or write new books with her aunt’s name or likeness.

Meena has more than 800,000 followers on Instagram and 689.8K followers on Twitter. Her full name is Meenakshi Ashley Harris and she is the founder of the Phenomenal Woman Action Campaign, an initiative that promotes activism and empowers women. Of late, Meena Harris has been tweeting on ongoing India’s farmer protests and against the three farm laws passed by India’s Parliament. After receiving a huge backlash, Meena strongly reacted that she won’t be silent and will fight rigorously.
