“A woman who has been pushing for what this country really needs right now, unity. It’s impossible not to feel the energy in this room, the positivity, the community, the humanity. We are at the precipice of an incredible shift, the brink of history.”
Beyonce continued:
“I am not here as a celebrity. I am not here as a politician. I am here is a mother. A mother who cares deeply about the world, my children and all of our children live in. A world where we have freedom to control our bodies. A world where we are not divided.”
Beyonce encouraged the audience to envision a future where daughters grow up without limitations, inspired by the achievements of those before them. She acknowledged the sacrifices of past generations, including grandmothers who have witnessed monumental change and those who could not see this historic moment.
