#KHive is an online informal organization supporting the Vice-Presidential candidacy of Kamala Harris. It is not formally affiliated with the campaign. It formed during her 2020 presidential campaign as an effort to defend Harris from racist and sexist attacks. It is an example of stan culture, or superfans on social media. Harris' supporters also use the hashtag #WeGotHerBack.
The hashtag first emerged in August of 2018, before Harris had announced her presidential candidacy but after she'd told MSNBC's Kasie Hunt she was "not ruling it out." As of July 2019, while Harris was in her presidential campaign, 38,000 Twitter accounts had used the hashtag and according to Vox "accrued an estimated 360 million impressions". The hashtag is a reference to #BeyHive, which is a group of Beyoncé fans. It was first used by Eric Chavous tweeting as @FlyWithKamala, which he created after the 2016 election, in response to a Harris tweet showing a Vogue cover featuring Beyoncé and after he'd seen a television panel "jokingly coming up with a term to call this growing legion of Kamala Harris supporters on social media."
When Harris endorsed Joe Biden in March 2020, the Biden campaign released a video in which Biden asks Harris if the #KHive will support him.
