Biden Addresses Howard University on Race and Terrorism.

President Joe Biden used his commencement address at Howard University to appeal to young Black voters, characterizing the current moment as a "battle for the soul of our nation" and calling on graduates to help lead the country into a new era of progress. Biden's support from Black voters, key to his 2020 victory, continues to slip, with his approval rating among Black adults dropping to below 60%. Biden dedicated part of Saturday's speech to listing what his administration sees as chief achievements in advancing equality, including appointing a record level of racially diverse judges and securing close to $6 billion in funding for historically Black colleges and universities.
