President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris have been named Time magazine’s Person of the Year for 2020.
The pair were chosen over finalists including President Donald Trump, the movement for racial justice, and frontline health workers with Dr. Anthony Fauci.
Time’s editor-in-chief, Edward Felsenthal, said Biden and Harris received the recognition “for changing the American story” and “for showing that the forces of empathy are greater than the furies of division.”
Biden, a former US senator from Delaware who served as vice president under President Barack Obama, and Harris, a US senator from California, will be featured on the magazine’s December 21 cover.
“Person of the Year is not just about the year that was but about where we’re headed,” said Time’s editor in chief, Edward Felsenthal.
