During the Democratic National Convention in the United States, many female celebrities will speak, including former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, former First Lady Michelle Obama, and President Joe Biden’s First Lady Jill. Attention is also focused on whether pop stars Beyoncé and Taylor Swift, who showed Democratic support in the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections, will attend.
According to political media outlets such as Axios on the 18th (local time), former Secretary of State Clinton and Mrs. Jill, the first female presidential candidates in the United States, have decided to give a speech in support of Vice President Kamala Harris on the 19th, the first day of the convention.
The speaker who is particularly noteworthy is Mrs. Michelle, who will appear on the 20th. She was born in Chicago in 1964. After graduating from high school, she went to Princeton University and Harvard Law School in the East, but returned to her hometown and worked at the famous law firm Sidley Austin. It was there that she met and married former President Obama.
In July 2016, as the incumbent First Lady, Michelle supported former Secretary of State Clinton, who was then the presidential candidate, at the Democratic National Convention. She was particularly praised for her famous speech targeting Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, which included the line, “When they go low, we go high.” She continued, “I wake up every morning in a house built by black slaves (the White House). When I see my two daughters playing on the White House lawn, I can accept the birth of the first female president.”
Given that the Democratic Party has once again nominated a female presidential candidate in this election, and that her opponent is Trump, just like eight years ago, Michelle’s speech is expected to have considerable ramifications. Former Speaker Pelosi, the first female Speaker of the House and a senior member of the Democratic Party, will speak on the 21st.
