Students from the Boston Latin School released a choreographed dance video on Inauguration Day in honor of the now Vice President Kamala Harris and their tribute has already amassed over 9,000 views. 

Multiple groups of students, 17 dancers in total, were featured wearing masks as they moved to Beyoncé’s song “Bigger.” 

“We dedicate this to Vice President Kamala Harris, all those who paved the way … and those who will later walk the path,” the opening scene of the video reads. 

The final shot of the nearly four-and-a-half-minute clip pans the inside of the school’s auditorium, showing a few portraits from the hundreds of years of white male headmasters before the camera halts and refocuses on Rachel Skerritt, the current head of school.

Skerritt became the third woman to lead the 382-year-old school in 2017, and the first person of color, much like Harris became the first woman and person of color in U.S. history to be elected into the vice presidential role.
