Lizzo Campaigns For Joe Biden in Moving Speech: “I Don't Wanna Go Back to the Way It Was”
During a visit to her hometown of Detroit on Oct. 23, Lizzo took a few minutes to speak to voters and share her support for Joe Biden ahead of the 2020 presidential election. “I don’t have to tell you guys that this is the most important election of our lifetime,” Lizzo said to a crowd of about 50 people involved with Focus: Hope, a non-profit organization seeking to provide education and training for underrepresented minority groups. “Michigan is going to be so crucial, and how Michigan votes is going to be so crucial between trying to make America great again or finally bringing America together.”
Lizzo‘s two-minute speech was powerful and effective in rallying voters to canvas for the Democratic candidates. “Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will help us finally bring America together,” she told attendees. The singer also stopped by Harper Woods, MI to speak to young voters about the importance of early voting and making a plan before you cast your ballot.
Lizzo, who has spent the last several months encouraging fans to vote, gave her speech just one day after Donald Trump and Joe Biden faced off in the final presidential debate ahead of the Nov. 3 election. See photos from the event and watch Lizzo’s campaign video endorsing Joe and Kamala ahead.
