Bernie Sanders made a surprise appearance at Coachella this weekend, introducing artist Clairo and calling for young people to stand up for justice.

Bernie Sanders has long been amassing crowds at his political rallies throughout the nation, but he might have drawn his biggest audience yet via a surprise appearance at Coachella last night, introducing indie artist Clairo and making an urgent plea to young people to “fight for justice.” The leftist senator from Vermont began his address by thanking the “Bags” singer-songwriter for the invite and introducing Florida Rep. Maxwell Frost, who joined him onstage. In the five-minute-long speech, the once-Democratic presidential candidate also addressed climate change, women’s reproductive rights, wealth inequality and healthcare inaccessibility.
