Maren Morris, Stevie Wonder Take the Stage at Night 3 of DNC 2024

The Democratic National Convention continued on Wednesday night (Aug. 21) at Chicago’s United Center for the evening’s “A Fight for Our Freedoms” theme, and more music stars performed onstage to celebrate Vice President Kamala Harris‘ presidential nomination.

Maren Morris delivered her protest song, “Better Than We Found It.” She sang to the crowd: “When lines of tomorrow are drawn/ Can I live with the side that I chose to be on?/ Will we sit on our hands, do nothing about it?/ Or will we leave this world better than we found it?”

Stevie Wonder followed with some powerful remarks for the audience, before performing “Higher Ground,” off his 1973 album, Innervisions, his first of three consecutive albums to win the Grammy for album of the year. “This is a moment to tell your children where you were and what you did,” he declared. “When we stand between history’s pain and tomorrows promises we must choose courage complacency.”

Harris’ selection for Vice President, Minnesota governor Tim Walz, is scheduled to speak on Wednesday night (Aug. 21), accepting the vice presidential nomination. Additionally, Sen. Cory Booker, Sen. Amy Klobuchar, Former Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and former President Bill Clinton are all additionally set to make remarks.

Harris took over the presidential campaign from President Biden, who spoke on the opening night of the DNC. On Thursday night, when P!nk is scheduled to perform, the attorney-turned-politician will accept the presidential nomination.
