Ahead of Cardi B's scheduled appearance at a Milwaukee rally supporting Kamala Harris, her former AP Government teacher, Joan Hill, publicly defended her political credibility against online critics. In a post shared by journalist Yashar Ali, Hill addressed those discrediting Cardi B’s activism, stating, “STFU and take a seat.” Hill highlighted Cardi’s commitment to political discourse, noting that the rapper excelled in her AP government class and regularly uses her platform for advocacy.
Cardi B, known for her outspoken support of Harris, has often spoken on issues affecting her fans and communities. Following President Joe Biden’s decision not to run for re-election, Cardi reiterated her stance that Harris should have always been the top Democratic candidate. Cardi shared on social media, “STOP PLAYING WIT ME!!!! Check the date… said this on JUNE 30TH!” emphasizing her longstanding support for the Vice President.
Cardi B has demonstrated her political knowledge on various platforms, including the popular show “Hot Ones,” where she discussed historical figures such as FDR and Eleanor Roosevelt. Friday’s rally will feature Cardi B alongside other artists, including Flo Milli, The Isley Brothers, and DJ Gemini Gilly, to help inspire voter turnout. Harris’s campaign emphasized the impact of celebrity voices on mobilizing the public, saying these figures serve as “trusted voices” who engage millions through their music and influence.
