Vice President Kamala Harris praised Al Sharpton, who has been criticized for alleged antisemitism for decades, as “part of the conscience” of the United States during a speech Friday.
“I thank you on behalf of all of us, everyone, for all that you do, and all that you are,” Harris said during remarks at the National Action Network convention. “And as I have said in public and in private many times, Rev, no matter where you are, you are always a voice of truth, speaking about the importance of justice for all people, you are part of the conscience of our country, and I thank you for all that you do.”

Harris was among several Biden administration officials who appeared at the convention in New York City, including Education Secretary Miguel Cardona, Domestic Policy Advisor Susan Rice, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo, according to the National Action Network website.
Sharpton rose to prominence in 1987 when he supported Tawana Brawley’s claims that she had been raped by a group of white men. The accusations later turned out to be false.
