OFFICIAL: BIDEN QUITS THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE

US President Joe Biden has announced that he will end his candidacy for re-election, saying "it is in the best interest of my party and the country".
It comes four months before Americans go to the polls, upending the race for the White House.

It follows weeks of intense pressure from fellow Democrats after a faltering debate performance against Republican Donald Trump at the end of June.
Following the announcement on Sunday evening, President Biden gave his endorsement in the presidential race to Vice President Kamala Harris

What happens now Biden has quit?
There is no precedent in modern US history for a presidential nominee to drop out this close to an election.

The selection of Mr Biden’s replacement will be confirmed at the Democrat National Convention, which this year begins on August 19.

Delegates to the convention anoint the party’s candidate at a formal vote.

It is also possible that the selection could take place in a roll-call vote in a virtual event weeks before the election.

As Mr Biden swept the Democrat primary, in which he faced only a minor challenge from Congressman Dean Phillips, he won almost 3,900 of the party’s 4,000 delegates.

Should this US Graduation 🎓 Get an F on ?

Washington D.C. - A graduation ceremony at an American university has turned into a widely publicized incident, highlighting what many term as persistent racial inequalities.

Kadidjatou Diallo, a student of African Descent – whose country of birth we are yet to confirm - showed unwavering determination in her claim that she was "unfairly interrupted" by a Caucasian woman in charge of holding the microphone at graduation during her speaking time.

Initial unverified reports suggest that, the moment Kadidjatou Diallo took the microphone to introduce herself, announcing her name; the said Caucasian woman abruptly interrupted her. As such, Ms. Kadidjatou responded in the way she felt best instantly. (See video 👇🏾)

In another video shared on her TikTok account, which has garnered over 22 million views, Kadiatou expresses her frustration at the discriminatory situation she says she experienced.

“As soon as I started saying my name, which is quite long with three syllables, the woman decided to cut me off,” Kadiatou says in the video. “White people who came before me had the opportunity to introduce themselves, mention their specialty, and even share some personal details.”

On one side, Kadidjatou and some other female students present say that the Caucasian woman quickly lowered the microphone whenever it came to people of different races. As such, the incident has sparked strong reactions on social media platforms, where many Internet users expressed their support for Kadidjatou and denounced this apparent flagrant injustice.

Kadidjatou Diallo's video, in which she explains her reaction and her desire to regain control of her moment of celebration, quickly went viral worldwide. She also expresses her apologies in the video, saying that she does not seek to harm anyone and that she does not wish to offend anyone.

On the other side, some folks, including students at the event are however defending the Caucasian lady who took the mic. They say she was just doing her job to curb speaking times. Given that previous speakers especially of other ethnicities, were over speaking and adding "extra irrelevant comments" in their acceptance speeches.

While there hasn't been a comprehensive investigation into the incident, the case of Kadidjatou Diallo could highlight the challenges that individuals from ethnic minorities still face in contemporary societies. Some nuances come to light here. For example, what is "extra irrelevant comments" to one culture could very well be "normal relevant comments" to the other. As such, if clarifications are needed, shouldn't there be a direct moment of interruption whereby school authorities present clarifications to all students on a going forward basis as to what is expected in their acceptance speeches. Without which, such incidents could very much also underline the importance of fighting against perceived discriminations and prejudices that persist in certain institutions.

This story sparks a wider debate about racial inequality and the need to ensure equal opportunities for all. It reminds everyone of the importance of recognizing, respecting and celebrating the diversity of our societies.

Kadidjatou Diallo's video continues to circulate on social media, inspiring some and irking others. Standing up against injustice and promoting positive social change is no easy feat.

What are your thoughts about this incident at Kadidjatou Diallo's graduation?
