Multiple protesters disrupted Kamala Harris’ book tour stop in Chicago on Saturday afternoon, eliciting a response from the former vice president herself. <\/p>\n
Harris was discussing her new book “107 Days” on stage at the Auditorium Theatre, when at least one protester began yelling, prompting members of the crowd to chant “get her out.” Security personnel, who were demanding the woman leave, escorted her out of the theater.<\/p>\n
At least two other protesters were captured on footage, including a man who appeared to be yelling about genocide before being led out by security. It wasn’t immediately clear what the protesters were demonstrating. <\/p>\n
\nThe crowd erupted in applause when journalist Michele Norris, who moderated the discussion, said, “We encourage people to use their voices but we want them to show respect for this woman.”<\/p>\n
“And please pronounce my name correctly\u2026” Harris quipped. <\/p>\n
