The Democratic National Convention in Chicago has been the stage for a fervent call to action, where the iconic Oprah Winfrey urged Americans to choose "joy" and support Vice President Kamala Harris's candidacy for the presidency. In an emotionally charged and hopeful speech, Winfrey addressed an enthusiastic audience, highlighting the importance of fundamental values such as truth, honor, and joy in politics and life. Winfrey, known for her influence and charisma, recalled Harris's story and her roots as the daughter of immigrants, an Indian mother and a Jamaican father. "Soon we will teach our children how the daughter of two migrants became the 47th president of the United States," she stated, as the audience responded with applause and cheers. Her message was clear: the future of the United States can be bright if voters choose the person who embodies those values. Oprah's call was not only directed at Democrats but extended to independent voters and those who have yet to make a decision. "You know this is true. You know I am telling you the truth: that values and character are what matter most," she emphasized. Her exhortation to choose "common sense over nonsense" resonated in an atmosphere where political polarization has been a constant. It is important to remember that the support of influential figures like Winfrey can be decisive in the electoral context. In the past, her endorsement of former President Barack Obama had a significant impact on the Democratic primaries, and her current involvement could be crucial in mobilizing the base and attracting undecided voters in the upcoming elections against the threat of former President Donald Trump. Before Winfrey's intervention, young poet Amanda Gorman took the stage with a poem that evoked the American dream and the unity of the American people. Gorman, who gained worldwide recognition after her performance at Biden's inauguration in 2020, resonated with the idea that the future is not predetermined by adversities but is built through hope and collective action. "Tomorrow is not written by our odds or our challenges, but by the audacity of our hope, by the vitality of our vote," Gorman recited, reminding the audience that true power lies in active participation. Her message, complemented by Winfrey's statements, invoked a sense of community and collective responsibility that is crucial in these times. The intersection of these two powerful voices at the convention underscores the importance of culture and art in politics. The way Winfrey and Gorman capture the attention and hearts of the audience not only inspires action but also helps to humanize political debates, bringing them into the realm of shared values and collective hope. As the convention progresses, immigration will be the central topic of discussion, an issue that Harris has addressed throughout her political career. The diversity she represents, both in her heritage and her trajectory, aligns with the narrative of inclusion that many Democrats are trying to present to the electorate. Winfrey's speech, along with Gorman's poetry, serves as a powerful reminder that elections are not just about policies or candidates, but about the direction the country wishes to take. With millions of eyes on the future, this November's election is seen as a pivotal moment in the history of the United States. In this context, the Democratic National Convention is not just a political event, but a celebration of hope, diversity, and the potential for change. The influence of figures like Winfrey and Gorman resonates in the collective memory, reminding citizens that every vote counts and that the true spirit of democracy lies in active and committed participation.
