This is America, folks.
Philadelphia to be exact.
Looks just like him!
🤣🤣🤣 This happened on Independence Mall near the Liberty Bell.
I'm guessing liberals loved this.
CNN reporters Laura Coates, Brianna Keilar, and Danny Freeman were just eating it up:
VIDEOS AT LINK................
Yes, Kiya Burgess, a black woman, won the Ben Franklin lookalike competition. And let me tell you, I've seen the copyrighted images of the event, and there were definitely a boatload of people there who actually looked like Ben Franklin.
Glad you got to cover this with such glee, CNN! Happy for you!

Maybe the Judges had no idea how Ben Franklin even looked, since they “only barely even heard of him in school.”
More like she sees a chance to ‘Go Viral and get a few minutes of spotlight.
Probably thought he had a discount store...............
Cultural appropriation
Na, Abe, definitely Abe. The smartest in the room.
Do we know that?
Ben Franklin didn’t wear blackface.
🔝🔝🔝
Look at the other contestants.
She should’ve won from what I saw.
(This is America, folks)
This WAS America, folks

Hosea 4:6-7
21st Century King James Version
6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to Me. Seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
7 “As they were increased, so they sinned against Me; therefore will I change their glory into shame.

The organizer is Elena Jackendoff. Looks like a dude. The winner was determined using an applause-o-meter.
Like the old Queen For A Day! show...............
Good for her! Having a little 4th of July fun and reminding everyone of Ben Franklin at the same time.
Down with the sourpusses.
“Uncle Ben Franklin perhaps.”
Very clever.
