Last month, Beyoncé spoke during a campaign rally for Democrat presidential candidate U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris in Houston. She made an impassioned plea for reproductive rights for women in her speech and said, “We are at the precipice of an incredible shift, the brink of history. I’m not here as a celebrity. I’m not here as a politician. I’m here as a mother. A mother who cares deeply about the world my children and all of our children live in.”
She continued, “A world where we have the freedom to control our bodies. A world where we’re not divided. Our past, our present, our future, merge to meet us here. Imagine our daughters growing up seeing what’s possible with no ceilings, no limitations. Imagine our grandmothers, imagine what they feel right now. Those who have lived to see this historic day.”
The US presidential election 2024 is set to take place on November 5, with the results likely to be out on November 6.
