Eminem says rally Kamala Harris will protect free speech

Eminem made brief remarks at a Kamala Harris rally in Detroit on Tuesday night, talking about people's fear of retaliation for speaking out and his belief that Harris would protect free speech as president.

On stage to introduce former President Barack Obama, Eminem told the crowd that he was attending the event “for several important reasons.”

“As most of you know, the city of Detroit and the home state of Michigan mean a lot to me,” he said. “And in this election we are in the spotlight more than ever, and I think it's important to use your voice. That’s why I encourage everyone to get out and vote.”

He added: “I also think that people shouldn't be afraid to express their opinions, and I don't think anyone wants an America where people are afraid of retaliation and what people will do, when you express your opinion.”

“I think Vice President Harris supports a future for this country in which these and many other freedoms are protected and preserved.”
