Amanda Gorman, who gained national fame after reciting her poem “The Hill We Climb” at the Biden-Harris inauguration in 2021, read a new poem at the DNC that stressed unity.

She said everyone is there because “we believe in the American dream” but that is being tested.

“It falls to us to ensure that we do not fall, for a people that cannot stand together, cannot stand at all,” she said.

“We are one family, regardless of religion, class, or color, for what defines a patriot is not just our love of liberty, but our love for one another,” she continued.

“This is loud in our country’s call because while we all love freedom, it is love that frees us all,” she said to applause.

She ended her poem with, “Let us not just believe in the American dream, let us be worthy of it.”

‘Let us choose joy!’ Oprah says

At the end of fired-up remarks, Oprah told the crowd: “Let us choose truth, let us choose honor and let us choose joy!”

“Because that’s the best of America. But more than anything else, let us choose freedom. Why? Because that’s the best of America. We’re all Americans. And together, let’s all choose Kamala Harris.”
