Pro-Palestine protesters heckle Kamala Harris at Detroit rally
The Democratic presidential nominee was speaking in Detroit, Michigan, on Wednesday evening when half a dozen protesters began chanting, “Kamala, Kamala, you can’t hide. We won’t vote for genocide,” according to US media.
The interruptions were the first Harris has encountered at a rally since she replaced US President Joe Biden on the Democratic ticket, NBC News reported.
Harris responded to the protesters by saying, “I’m here because we believe in democracy. Everyone’s voice matters, but I am speaking now. I am speaking now.”
As the protest continued, Harris’s tone became more forceful.
“You know what? If you want Donald Trump to win, then say that. Otherwise, I’m speaking,” she said.
Hmm that doesn't bode well. I doubt much will change with Harris, already using the excuse Trump is worse.
‘Uncommitted’ campaign wants Harris to clarify stance on Gaza war
Leaders of the “Uncommitted” protest-vote movement in Michigan have said they will not endorse Harris – who replaced Biden atop the Democratic presidential ticket – until she clarifies her stance on a ceasefire in Gaza as well as weapons transfers to Israel.
The campaign – which gained national attention by urging voters to cast “Uncommitted” ballots in a message to Biden during the Democratic Party’s primaries earlier this year – is particularly influential in the battleground state of Michigan.
More than 700,000 Americans, including 100,000 in Michigan, heeded the campaign’s call, and it is set to send 30 delegates to the upcoming Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
Abbas Alawieh, a co-founder of the movement, told reporters in Dearborn that the campaign wants to know how Harris’s policy “is outwardly different from the disastrous policy that we’ve seen unfold over the last nine months”.
He added that the uncommitted movement would not endorse Harris for president unless she “[tells] us where she stands on Gaza and on the issue of weapons transfers specifically, so that we know what message we can take back to the voters that we mobilise here in Michigan”.
