The Mouth of MSNBC can never seem to shut it.
Joy Reid recently delivered a controversial monologue, suggesting that black individuals are not supportive of their culture if they don’t back Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign. Harris is poised to be the Democratic nominee after President Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the race.

Reid, a host on MSNBC, argued that black people must support Harris to align with “the culture,” a term often used to signify solidarity within the black community. She stated, “Given the just stratospheric entrance of Vice President Kamala Harris into the presidential campaign, and she has now secured enough delegates to become the nominee. You’re going to look real crazy being on the other side of that line, particularly as a person of color. But really as anyone who claims to have any connection to ‘the culture.'”
Reid’s comments sparked immediate backlash, as she suggested that voting against Harris would result in social isolation within the black community. She also criticized Republicans, including Donald Trump and his VP pick JD Vance, claiming without evidence that their administration would regress America to the 1950s.
Critics of Reid’s remarks, such as those on “The Will Cain Show,” argue that her statements represent casual racism, asserting that they undermine the principle of individual thought and political freedom. The criticism focuses on the notion that dictating voting behavior based on race is fundamentally racist and anti-American.

The controversy brings up the broader debate about political identity and race in America. Opponents of Reid’s perspective emphasize that black individuals, like all citizens, have the right to support any candidate based on personal beliefs and values, without being labeled or ostracized. Reid is still on the Democrat plantation, and does as her masters say to support the racists of the Democrat Party and media.
Key Points:
- Joy Reid claims black individuals must support Kamala Harris to be true to their culture.
- Reid’s comments have sparked backlash, with critics accusing her of promoting casual racism.
- Critics argue that dictating voting behavior based on race undermines individual political freedom.
- Opponents emphasize that black people, like all citizens, have the right to support any candidate.
