Priya Bala | Unprecedented: Stories from the 2024 DNC

Priya Bala is a guest from Schaumburg, Illinois, at the 2024 Democratic National Convention and the wife of U.S. Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi of Illinois.

“I think I want to return to a feeling of everybody wanting to be there for each other and not pitting people one against the other,” Bala said. “And, you know, aside from that, certainly choice, certainly inclusiveness and acceptance of all sorts of diversity. But we are all here for each other and we're all in the same boat. And I just hope that we can get there in November.”

Unprecedented examines the backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives of Massachusetts attendees and others at the 2024 DNC in Chicago, Illinois.
