Vice President Kamala Harris made an appearance at the evening concert series of the Essence Festival in New Orleans, marking the festival's 30th anniversary. Addressing attendees at Caesars Superdome, Harris congratulated Essence on the milestone and emphasized the importance of celebrating the diversity, depth, and beauty of culture.
Amid growing concerns about President Joe Biden's ability to serve another term, Harris has been viewed as a potential successor. Despite speculation, Harris has consistently supported Biden, affirming that he is the nominee of their party.
Following Biden's high-stakes ABC News interview on Friday, it remains unclear whether Harris watched the interview. When asked about her thoughts on the interview, Harris waved and entered her motorcade, leaving her response ambiguous.
Harris' appearance at the Essence Festival is part of her 'Summer of Engagement' events, where she plans to travel to various states and engage with key constituencies such as Black, women, and young voters. This strategic outreach underscores Harris' commitment to connecting with diverse communities and mobilizing support.
