  • Camryn Bowden reports from the 2024 Democratic National Convention:

    Protest continued for a second day in Chicago, organized by the coalition to March on the DNC. Hatem Abudayyeh, the National Chair of the U.S. Palestinian Community Network, shared some of the major concerns from those protesting.

    Palestinians and Arabs care deeply about Palestine, but we also care about immigrant rights and workers rights and reproductive rights, all of the other issues that coalition have March on at the UN. Is working on.

    While they protest outside the Convention Center, inside are hundreds of online influencers working to draw in younger voters. Bowden talked to Lee McGowan, politics girl and LA based content creator, with more than 153,000 followers on Instagram.

    They have invited us, I think, as a way to meet the people where they are.

    Another influencer told Bowden she feels her invitation was because of her comedic approach to the issues.

    Kenny Forman reports from the 2024 Democratic National Convention:

    Forman has been busy talking to delegates from Long Island about what their expectations are at the DNC, including Assemblywoman Mikhail Solage. She represents the state's 4th Congressional District.

    I'm a Democrat through and through, and so it's just really exciting to be able to, you know, see and breathe our democratic values and then bring it back home to New York because I know I'm gonna be learning so much.

    Forman also talked to Babylon Councilman Dwayne Gregory from District 2. This is his first time attending a democratic convention.

    And I look forward to meeting new people. You know, like finding out what's going on across the country in different areas that I haven't been or that I'm not as familiar with. So it's going to be a great time overall.

    President Biden speaks tonight, along with New York Governor Kathy Hochul, and many others.
