Morgan Freeman, In New Clinton Ad, Declares
'She’s Always Stood With Us'
Actor Morgan Freeman narrates a second Hillary for America ad, called
“Stand”, in which Freeman makes the case that Hillary Clinton has
“always stood with us.” The ad highlights how Clinton has stood up for
mothers who lost their sons and daughters to gun violence or while in
police custody. The ad also invokes Clinton's work on behalf of
families in Flint that had their water poisoned and her commitment to
defending the progress made during the Obama administration. The ad
began running this weekend in South Carolina.
Starting Monday, five mothers who lost their children to gun violence
or while in police custody, as well as prominent civil rights
attorneys, will travel to ten cities across South Carolina to host
“Breaking Down Barriers” forums for Hillary Clinton. These supporters
include Sybrina Fulton, mother of Trayvon Martin; Geneva Reed-Veal,
mother of Sandra Bland; Gwen Carr, mother of Eric Garner; Maria
Hamilton, mother of Dontre Hamilton; and Lucy McBath, mother of Jordan
Davis. Also supporting Clinton are prominent civil rights lawyers
Benjamin Crump, Gregg Greer, Cannon Lambert, and Billy Murphy.
The new ad
runs alongside the previously released "All The Good" ad, in which
Freeman tells the story of Hillary Clinton's lifetime commitment to
breaking barriers. That ad highlights Clinton's work on juvenile
justice issues in South Carolina, exposing racism in Alabama and
registering Latino voters in Texas and her agenda to revitalize
under-served communities. Freeman narrated advertising for the Obama
re-election campaign in 2012.
Hillary Clinton recently launched her “Breaking Every Barrier Agenda”
to break down all the barriers that hold South Carolinians back and
build ladders of opportunity for all Americans. Clinton is committed to
ending the school-to-prison pipeline, ending the era of mass
incarceration, making college affordable, and protecting the right to
vote. For a fact sheet detailing Clinton's proposals, click here.
