Morgan Freeman voices new Clinton ad: ‘She’s always stood with us’

Actor Morgan Freeman says in a new ad for Hillary Clinton that the Democratic presidential candidate has “always stood with us.”

{mosads}The Freeman-narrated ad, called “Stand,” began running in South Carolina this weekend.

It touches on gun violence and deaths in police custody and focuses on the former secretary of State’s recent focus on the water crisis in Flint, Mich. and her work in the Obama administration.

This is the second time the Academy Award winner has tapped for a Clinton ad. Freeman touted her commitment to breaking barriers in a previous ad.

The new ad coincides with forums scheduled in ten South Carolina cities ahead of next weekend’s Democratic primary that will be hosted by mothers who lost children including Trayvon Martin, Sandra Bland and Eric Garner.
