On the evening of July 25, more than 164,000 white women came together, setting a new Zoom record to raise funds for Vice President Kamala Harris. Known as “White Women: Answer the Call,” this unprecedented event became the largest Zoom meeting ever, causing the platform to crash, and generating nearly $2 million in under an hour.
Shannon Watts, a well-known activist, spearheaded the initiative, urging women nationwide to participate and invite others. The call featured influential speakers like pop star Pink and actress Connie Britton, who fervently endorsed Harris’s qualifications and campaign.
Watts highlighted the event’s groundbreaking nature on social media, noting it was the first Zoom call to exceed 100,000 participants and celebrating the impressive fundraising achievement, with grassroots contributions surpassing $1 million in the first hour and approaching $2 million overall.
