Rapper Meek Mill has recently expressed his desire to have a candid conversation with Vice President Kamala Harris, where he would pose “3 questions” related to the issue of Black and Brown men being disproportionately targeted and incarcerated in the United States.
Meek Mill’s statement about wanting to ask Vice President Kamala Harris “3 questions” highlights the importance of addressing these systemic injustices and creating a more equitable and just legal system. As the first female, Black Vice President in U.S. history, Harris holds a unique position of influence in shaping policies related to criminal justice and social equity.
The Philly rapper took to X on Wednesday (Aug. 14) and had questions about the Democratic presidential nominee’s past as San Francisco’s district attorney. “I wanna ask Kamala Harris questions about her past as a da, even if she had to be tough,” he tweeted. “All I hear is rumors of her … I would ask her 3 questions about black and brown men going to prison and her views and try to help her understand from a survival standpoint point she may have never had to encounter!”
Before becoming President Joe Biden’s veep, Harris’ political career started in 1990 when she became a deputy district attorney in Alameda County, California. She eventually ascended up the ranks and was elected as San Francisco’s 27th district attorney in 2004, where she earned a reputation for being “tough on crime.”
When a far-right political commentator suggested former president Trump “would do a sit-down,” Meek agreed. “I think he would too on my platform,” Meek said, before pointing out that it may not happen. “politics are scary tho he just got shot few weeks ago. I’ve been tryna heal up from that gun stuff I got ptsd!”
Meek Mill’s “3 questions” to Vice President Harris represent a critical step towards fostering dialogue, understanding, and ultimately, change in the pursuit of a fairer and more inclusive justice system for all.
