In the first rally of his last-minute presidential campaign, rapper Kanye West delivers rambling remarks at a South Carolina convention centre. The venue appeared to lack audience microphones, so West repeatedly told the crowd to be silent. 'Quiet, quiet, quiet, quiet,' he tells the crowd before saying the American abolitionist Harriet Tubman 'never actually freed the slaves. She just had the slaves work for other white people'. Members of the audience can be heard saying, 'Y'all, we're leaving now'
