Meanwhile, in America, a small group of protestors raised two Afghan flags. The mainly Afghan-American women protestors were attending a pro-Newsom rally led by Vice President Kamala Harris on Thursday.
Harris came to California to support the embattled Governor Gavin Newsom. The governor is in the middle of a recall campaign. Neither Newsom nor Harris reached out to the women’s rights and Free Afghanistan protestors.
On August 26th, Harris made a speech pledging to protect women and children in Afghanistan from the Taliban.
