Activists and Industry Figures Call for Action Following Kamala Harris's Election Loss

The activist, model, and comedian is asking people to keep having “strong opinions,” “strong takes,” “strong wills,” and “strong relationships.”

The TV and radio host said that despite our disappointment, “We don’t have time to despair.”

The political, civil rights, and social justice activist wants to remind us: “In darkness there is light, in despair there is hope, and in doubt there is faith.”

The government teacher and podcast host wants this to be a “reminder to strive on to finish the work we are in.”

An actor and director who starred in political ads for Harris, thanked the vice president for an “inspiring” and “positive” race.

The actor encouraged people disappointed with the election results to “wake up and fight” for their rights and not give up.

The rapper thanked Harris for being “a real example of what the American dream should be.”

The actor shared an inspiring quote by novelist Samuel Beckett: “I must go on, I can’t go on, I’ll go on.”

“When there are no words, there is music ❤️” the model wrote alongside a video of husband John Legend playing music for their kids.

The film director shared a quote by novelist Toni Morrison: “This is precisely the time when artists go to work. There is no time for despair, no place for self pity, no need for silence, no room for fear. We speak, we write, we do language. That is how civilizations heal.”
