Halloween parade float depicts shackled Harris being dragged

Pennsylvania event organizer says it doesn't share values' presented by the float denounced as racist by NAACP

A Pittsburgh-area Halloween parade's depiction of Kamala Harris in chains and being dragged by a vehicle displaying Donald Trump's name is being condemned as racist - and has prompted an apology from the event organizer.

Photos of Wednesday night's parade in Westmoreland county, Pennsylvania, that circulated widely across social media show a person dressed as the Democratic vice-president shackled and walking behind a golf cart-like vehicle. The vehicle - a float in a Halloween parade organized by the Mount Pleasant volunteer fire department - is decorated with American flags and Trump campaign signs carrying people dressed in what appear to be Secret Service agent costumes, along with a mounted rifle.
