Outrage Over Harris Float at Pennsylvania Parade
A Halloween parade in Mount Pleasant, Pennsylvania, sparked outrage after featuring a float depicting Vice President Kamala Harris in chains, trailing behind a golf cart with Donald Trump campaign signs. The float was widely criticized as racist and offensive by local officials, including the mayor and the NAACP's Pittsburgh branch, which condemned the imagery for evoking a painful history of oppression. The Mount Pleasant Volunteer Fire Department, which organized the parade, apologized for the incident, stating they do not share the values represented by the offensive display and committed to reviewing their planning processes. The event drew significant backlash on social media, with many calling for accountability and clearer guidelines to prevent similar occurrences in the future. Both the Westmoreland County Democratic and Republican Committees disapproved of the float, emphasizing the need to avoid political imprisonment or violence depictions in any context. The controversy comes just days before a contentious election, highlighting ongoing political tensions in the region.
