"BLACK AMERICA VOTES: THE BIDEN INTERVIEW" WILL CONFRONT PRESSING ISSUES IN A HIGH-STAKES MOMENT FOR HIS RE-ELECTION CAMPAIGN

New York, NY, July 13, 2024 - Today, BET Media Group announced "Black America Votes: The Biden Interview," an exclusive BET News interview special with President Joe Biden airing Wednesday, July 17, at 10 PM ET/9 PM CT on BET. In this critical stage of his re-election campaign, President Biden will sit down with award-winning journalist Ed Gordon for his first on-camera interview on BET and speak directly to Black America. The conversation will focus on critical issues impacting our community and discuss why Black Americans should continue to support his candidacy amidst growing public concerns and calls for him to withdraw.

As we approach the 2024 election, the stakes have never been higher for the President and Black America. At this crucial moment, it is imperative for President Biden to directly address the concerns of Black voters and articulate his vision for the future.

This exclusive half-hour special will discuss the growing concern over President Biden's fitness for office, the state of the economy for Black families, the Project 2025 conservative policy agenda, and the fight to engage Black voters.

Executive Produced by Jason Samuels, this news special complements BET's "We V.O.T.E." campaign to increase civic engagement and voter participation within the Black community.
