"There was this sad belief or sad assumption that Black men wouldn't show up or Kamala Harris or Black men wouldn't show up as prominent and powerful voting demographic.

"Beyonce is one of the entertainment industry’s most powerful women at a historic time when (politically and positionally) the most powerful woman in the U.S. is running for U.S. President," said Williams. He said he was uncertain that Beyonce would reach voters who have questions about Harris. "We must acknowledge that celebrities are great political advertisers, but they are not guarantors of political victory for candidates."
