Caller Tells Charlamagne Harris Seemed ‘A Little Bit Tone-Deaf’ To ‘Young Black Americans’ During Town Hall

A caller told radio host Charlamagne Tha God on Wednesday  that Vice President Kamala Harris came across as out of touch with “young black Americans” during their Tuesday audio town hall.

Harris appeared on Charlamagne’s popular radio show, “The Breakfast Club,” to discuss her policy platform and take questions from Detroit, Michigan, residents. During the show’s “Get It Off Your Chest” morning segment, the caller told Charlamagne that Harris seemed uninterested in addressing issues facing average Americans during their interview.

“I saw the interview last night, and I feel like if the Democratic Party don’t uphold to the promises that they makin’ to they voters, I really believe that they gon’ lose the black vote — well, a good majority of the black vote — moving forward after this election,” the caller said. “A lot of what Kamala Harris was saying, it sounded good, but I think she’s a little bit tone-deaf to everyday American citizens … When the guy asked her about like what she would do for the economy, she started mentioning like, you know, the home buying and all that stuff, but she went to where she was talking about how she made medications affordable for seniors and all that.”

“And I appreciate her doing that for that, but it’s like, as far as like young black Americans, the Gen Zs and the Millennials … A lot of us, if we ain’t left our mama house, we done moved back in with mama,” he added. “So, it’s, like, what is her plan as far as like the immediate impact on the economy, so where we can start getting back to saving money, so we can be able to start investing into like having a small business and stuff like that.”
