John, the right-wing media is attacking Vice President Kamala Harris.
Today, we're asking Women's Marchers like you to fight back.
Recently, the New York Post knowingly and intentionally published the false claim that Kamala Harris was profiting off selling her children's book to migrant detention centers. They claimed that a children's book written by VP Harris was part of a so-called "welcome kit" for migrant children. Spoiler alert: That's unequivocally false.
They knew this was a blatant lie, John, but they published it anyway — and have since done nothing to apologize for the racist and sexist attack against our first woman of color Vice President.
That's why we're teaming up with Women's March partner UltraViolet to go straight to the New York Post's funders to demand accountability: We're calling on major corporations like Netflix, Bacardi, Mercedes Benz, Pop TV, Bloomingdales, and The CW to pull their advertisements from this far-right publication and denounce the Post's lies about Kamala Harris. We need your help to get this done, so please add your name.
This racist and hateful lie by the New York Post went on to ignite a wave of intentionally false claims about Vice President Harris, that were quickly parroted by talking heads on Fox News and by the Republican National Committee.
Yet the New York Post still has yet to take down the false and defamatory article.
We know that if enough Women's Marchers sign on to pressure the Post's major corporate advertisers to pull their funding and condemn these blatant lies, that we can make an urgent and important difference along with our progressive partners at UltraViolet. But we need as many people on this team as possible to add their names to let these companies know we've got our eyes on them.
Women's Marchers worked tirelessly to elect Kamala Harris as our first woman of color Vice President — and now we need to have her back.
Thank you,
Women's March
P.S. This isn't the first time Women's Marchers have successfully made progress by going after the funders of far-right politicians and news outlets. We've seen actions like these work with enough signatures from folks like you, John, so please take a moment to add your name to demand that the Post's major advertisers pull their ads and denounce these lies about Vice President Harris.
