Grift Alert: Kamala Harris at the BET Awards - 7/1/24

from Hotep Jesus · host Hotep Jesus

Kamala Harris's cameo at the BET Awards was criticized as pandering. During a scripted video call with Taraji P. Henson, Harris used phrases like "out here in these streets" and referenced Kendrick Lamar’s song to discuss serious issues like reproductive rights and voter freedom. The performance, intended to energize voters, was mocked online for being cringeworthy. Critics on social media and news outlets described it as an awkward attempt to connect with the audience.
