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.

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.
