Black Lives Matter has criticized the Democratic Party for “anointing” Vice President Kamala Harris as the expected Democrat presidential nominee without a public vote.

Responding to the development, Black Lives Matter criticized Democrats for not giving voters a say—and called on the Democratic National Committee to host a virtual snap primary ahead of the party’s convention in August. Newsweek has contacted Black Lives Matter, the Harris campaign and the DNC for comment via email.
“Democratic Party elites and billionaire donors are attempting to manipulate Black voters by anointing Kamala Harris and an unknown vice president as the new Democratic ticket without a primary vote by the public,” Black Lives Matter said in a statement.
“This blatant disregard for democratic principles is unacceptable. While the potential outcome of a Harris presidency may be historic, the process to achieve it must align with true democratic values.”

Black Lives Matter said any process that does not include voters could undermine Harris, or another Democrat, if they win the White House in November.
“Imagine our first Black woman president not having won some sort of public nomination process. The pundits would immediately label it as affirmative action or a DEI [diversity, equity and inclusion] move, and any progress made by a President Harris would be on shaky foundations. If Kamala Harris is to be the nominee, it must be through a process that upholds democratic principles and public participation.”........https://www.amren.com/news/2024/07/black-lives-matter-denounces-democrats-for-anointing-kamala-harris/
