According to sources, his intention to unequivocally endorse Harris was announced by Maryland First Lady Dawn Moore late last night on a Zoom call hosted by Win With Black Women. The meeting was closed to press and off the record for those present.
More than 40,000 Black women were on the call, which began around 10 p.m. on June 21 and concluded after midnight on July 22. Attendees described the occasion as “electrifying” and “encouraging.” As a result, more than 1.5 million dollars were raised during the meeting.
Dozens of prominent Black women, including elected officials and leaders of national organizations including the Divine Nine, spoke in support of Harris for president. Prince George’s County Executive Angela Alsobrooks gave comments, as well as CEO and President of the National Council of Negro Women President Shavon Arline-Bradley; Dr. Johnnetta Cole; Congresswoman Maxine Waters (D-Calif- 43); U.S. Representative Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas-30); Congresswoman Joyce Beatty (D-Ohio-3); Bernice King, who said this is the first time she’s ever publicly endorsed a presidential candidate, and Bishop Vashti McKenzie.
