I just got an email update from the organizers of tomorrow night’s White Dudes for Harris Zoom call. They have now received more than 50,000 54,000 60,000 70,000 75,000 90,000 registrations in less than four days. Their original communications for the call set a goal of 20,000 registrations. Woo-hoo!
From the organizers:
When we started organizing on Friday, we could never have dreamed that so many of us would come together the way we have. We are a bit shocked. But also…grateful. We are grateful to be in this with you, and grateful to be starting something really special with you.
Ninety nine days from now we have an opportunity to help Kamala Harris make some history, we also have the opportunity to change some minds, to have some tough but fair conversations, to meet other white dudes where they are and to address some things that, well frankly, just haven’t been addressed.
Scheduled speakers include:
- DOT Secretary Pete Buttigeig
- NC Governor Roy Cooper
- Congressman Adam Schiff
- Actor Misha Collins
- Actor/Singer Josh Groban
- Author Scott Galloway
- Actor Josh Gad
And many more.
UPDATE: More speakers recently added to the line-up include:
- MN Governor Tim Walz
- IL Governor JB Pritzker
- Mitch Landrieu, Co-Chair of the Harris for President Campaign
- Former AL Senator Doug Jones
- David Hogg, Founder, Leaders We Deserve
There’s still plenty of time to register and to share information about the call with your family and network. The call is taking plan on Monday, July 29 at 8:00 pm ET. Please share the RSVP link.
They’ve also developed a social media kit.
Spread the word!
UPDATE
For those of you asking about the Zoom link, I received an email from them this morning in which they said they’d be sending out the link around 11 am ET this morning. I haven’t received it yet, but if you’ve registered for the call you’re on the list and you’ll be getting an email with the link once they’re ready. So keep checking your inbox. I’m sure they’re busy scrambling to make sure the technology is all set up to handle such a massive group.
UPDATE 2
They’ve just sent out the link for the call. I’m not going to share it because if you want to participate in the call please register and you’ll get the link in the email (and be sure to look in your spam folder). When you register you help them keep track of the numbers. From the call’s organizers:
It is SO IMPORTANT that your friends continue to RSVP even though we’ve released the link. It’s the way that we’re going to ensure that we are able to continue to keep in touch, organize together and do the hard work of getting Kamala Harris elected!
