Kamala Harris’ base is made up of upward mobile Black voters. When asked if she’s running for president again, the entire room stood and cheered at this event in Detroit hosted by the Detroit Branch NAACP. She is still popular among some Democrats.

Rev. Anthony asks Harris about some voters feeling upset that El-Sayed supported the Uncommitted movement. “It's okay to not be in love with a candidate... It's okay to vote and ask everybody else to vote because this choice is better than that one.”

Harris called Alawieh earlier this year to apologize for leaving him and other pro-Palestine leaders off the DNC stage in 2024. Alawieh was one of the founders of the Uncommitted movement.

NEW: Former VP Kamala Harris says Pres. Trump's media ban of CNN/MSNOW/Politico is "abhorrent" "The man is afraid of the voice of the people... he's trying to stifle the ability of journalists to let the people of America know what's really going on in their government."
