Shonda Rhimes campaigns for Harris in Philadelphia with focus on abortion rights

PHILADELPHIA— Producer and writer Shonda Rhimes campaigned for her longtime friend Vice President Kamala Harris in Philadelphia on Saturday, outlining the stakes for Black women in the upcoming election.

“The energy in this room is fantastic,” Rhimes said at a “Books, Ballots, and Brunch” event at Bleu Brook/Bleu B Soul, a restaurant in West Philadelphia.

Speaking in a room adorned with Harris campaign signs, including one that read “Black Voters for Harris” and another that read “Black Joy!,” state Rep. Morgan Cephas (D-Philadelphia) and Rhimes spoke about the upcoming election and how to encourage others to support Harris’ campaign.

“We’re here to celebrate all things Black women,” said Haniyyah Sharpe-Brown, vice chair for Black Women for Harris-Walz in the Philadelphia region.
