‘What a Variety of Whiteness We Have Here’: Hollywood Liberals, Political Elites Flock to Kamala Harris Fundraiser

A handful of Hollywood elites and top Democrat politicians flocked to a massive campaign fundraiser Monday evening discussing their support for the new presidential nominee Kamala Harris and encouraging their party voters to get out to the polls this November.

The “White Dudes For Harris” zoom conference began Monday evening at 8 p.m., bringing on a flurry of Hollywood liberals alongside major Democrat officials, such as U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg and North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper.

Just before the first major actor came out, the Democratic moderator introduced National Director of the Working Families Party Maurice Mitchell, who joked about joining the call as a black man.

“I want to address the obvious, I’m not sure if you noticed, but I am not a white man. Yet, here I am opening up the White Dudes for Kamala call and stranger things have happened,” Mitchell said before explaining his stance for joining the men.

Shortly after, Hollywood elite Jeff Bridges joined the call to discuss his support for the vice president, stating how “beautifully” President Joe Biden “passed the baton” to Harris after withdrawing from the 2024 presidential race on July 21.
