Democrats will close out their national convention on Thursday night with Vice president Kamala Harris formally accepting the party’s presidential nomination an
Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris speaks during the Democratic National Convention Thursday, Aug. 22, 2024, in Chicago.
In her speech, she is expected to describe her background coming from a middle-class household and moving on to become a prosecutor, senator and the vice president of the United States. She is also expected to contrast her optimistic vision for America’s future with Trump’s “dark” agenda. “No specific programs, ALL TALK, NO ACTION — Why didn’t she do it three and a half years ago?” Trump wrote in one post.
Harris also addressed another precarious issue that has divided Democrats in the U.S. support for Israel and the war in Gaza that has claimed the lives of tens of thousands of Palestinians. Pro-Palestine demonstrations have taken place all over the country, including outside the United Center in Chicago, as protesters have continued to demand Israel agree to a cease-fire to end the fighting.
