Beyoncé delivered an upbeat message as she made her first campaign appearance with Kamala Harris, who has adopted her song Freedom as an anthem for her presidential bid.

The music superstar called Harris “a woman who has been pushing for what this country really needs right now — unity.” “We are at the precipice of an incredible shift — the brink of history,” Beyoncé said. “I’m not here as a celebrity.

I’m not here as a mother. I’m not here as a politician. I’m here as a mother who cares deeply about the world my children and all of our children live, a world where we have freedom to control our bodies, a world where we are not divided — our past, our present, our future meet us here.” Beyoncé did not mention Harris’ rival, Donald Trump, in her remarks, as have other celebrity supporters who have been on the campaign trail for the Democratic nominee.

She added later, “It’s time to sing a new song, a song that began 248 years ago. The old notes of downfall, discord, despair no longer resonate.
