The NAACP leader hopes to have a conversation with Cardi B following her announcement that she will not be voting in the 2024 election.

After rapper Cardi B publicly shared her decision to not participate in the 2024 presidential election, NAACP President Derrick Johnson extended an invitation for a sit-down conversation. In a recent cover story for Rolling Stone, the Grammy-nominated artist explained her reasoning behind not voting for either President Biden or former President Donald Trump. "I don't f--- with both of y'all," she boldly stated about the Democratic and Republican candidates.

Cardi B expressed her belief that Trump poses a "dire threat" to the country, while Biden has caused her "layers and layers of disappointment" with his handling of both domestic and foreign affairs. She also voiced her frustration with the ongoing inflation and low wages, saying, "It's just like, damn, y'all not caring about nobody." She believes there are solutions to these issues, as evidenced by the billions of dollars spent on various things, but they seem to be disregarded.

In response to Cardi's political stance, Johnson reached out to her, acknowledging the importance of her voice and the need for communities to look beyond the presidential race. He extended an invitation for her to speak with the NAACP about using their collective power to elect officials at all levels, from mayors to school board members, in the upcoming November election.

Cardi's recent statements regarding the 2024 election align with previous comments she made to Los Angeles radio host Big Boy, where she declared her decision not to vote for either candidate. Despite publicly endorsing Biden in the 2020 election, following her initial support for Sen. Bernie Sanders, Cardi was set on not endorsing Biden for a second time in 2024. "I'm endorsing no presidents no more," she stated in a 2020 interview with The Guardian, expressing her disappointment with Biden's rhetoric and the current state of the country.

In conclusion, Cardi B's vocal stance on the 2024 election has sparked a conversation about the importance of collective power and the need for communities to look beyond just the presidential race. NAACP President Derrick Johnson has extended an invitation for her to discuss these issues further, recognizing the value of her voice and the potential impact it could have on the upcoming election.
