Kamala Harris's Mother is Caucasian

[surada]

She isn't an African-American, is what I said.

Black people in Jamaica have a rich history that began with the arrival of enslaved Africans in the 16th century:
Spanish colonization
In 1494, the Spanish colonized Jamaica and brought the first Africans to the island as servants. When the English took over in 1655, many of these Africans were freed and escaped into the mountains, where they became the first Maroons. The Maroons developed their own culture based on their West African roots and resisted slavery for almost 200 years. In 1739, the British granted the Maroons political autonomy, and their descendants and culture are still present in Jamaica today.
British colonization
The British brought hundreds of thousands of enslaved Africans to Jamaica to work in the sugar industry. During this time, some Akan slaves escaped and joined with the Maroons, even becoming leaders. Queen Nanny, leader of the Windward Maroons, is considered a Jamaican national hero for her role in slave resistance.
Morant Bay rebellion
In 1865, Paul Bogle led the Morant Bay rebellion after a Black man was imprisoned for allegedly trespassing on a plantation.

Read the statute.

Yeah, I'm not sure about that document. Easy to make/fake stuff online. BUT, she surely is not African-American--you know, "black".

Who cares.

It’s the topic of the thread that you decided to spend your time engaging in… so you. You care to name one

I dont care what race Kamala is. Your kind obviously does.

 

[Doc7505]

LOL, but the official birth document says she is Caucasian born in India. Must have been a DEI hire that filled out the birth certificate. It also says her dad's race is Jamaican--Is that a thing?

Kamala Harris wasn't born in India.

It seems that no one on this thread is aware that they used to classify Indians (at least from certain parts of India) as Caucasian. I don't know if that's still the case. But from what I've heard, apparently it has to do with bone structure, not just skin color.

In any event, she's HALF Indian and her father immigrated from Jamaica, and the vast majority of Jamaicans (as has already been pointed out) are of African descent. At least in part.

I would just say she's mixed. But to say she doesn't have any black blood in her at all is downright retarded, all you have to do is look at a picture of her Dad. lol

ETA: but as others have said, race shouldn't matter at all. Anyone voting for someone simply because of their race is a fool or racist.

 

[toobfreak]

It says right on Kamala's birth certificate, mother - Caucasian.

I guess that is technically right, as East Indians are of Indo-Aryan ethnicity.

 

[NewsVine_Mariyam]

It is not a Census form. It is a birth certificate.

Yeah I guess I can see why this might confuse you. Ask Google the question that is answered below:

Asians and Asian Indians were categorized as Caucasian in early censuses and on birth certificates due to the complex and evolving understanding of race in the United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Here are some key points to consider:

1. Historical Racial Classifications: The concept of race has changed over time, influenced by social, political, and scientific factors. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, racial categories were not as clearly defined as they are today. The classification systems were based on a mix of physical appearance, geographic origin, and social constructs.
2. Caucasian Classification: The term "Caucasian" was broadly used to describe people from a wide range of geographical regions, including Europe, the Middle East, and parts of Asia. This categorization was based on early anthropological theories that grouped people based on certain physical characteristics, such as skull shape and skin color.
3. Legal and Social Implications: In the United States, racial classifications had significant legal and social implications, particularly regarding immigration, naturalization, and civil rights. For instance, the Naturalization Act of 1790 limited naturalization to "free white persons," which led to various court cases to determine who could be considered "white."
4. Court Cases and Legal Precedents: Several court cases in the early 20th century addressed the racial classification of Asian Indians. Notably, the 1923 Supreme Court case United States v. Bhagat Singh Thind ruled that Asian Indians were not "white" in the common understanding of the term, despite being classified as Caucasian by certain anthropological definitions.
5. Shifting Classifications: Over time, as the understanding of race and ethnicity evolved, the classification of Asians and Asian Indians changed. By the mid-20th century, more specific racial and ethnic categories were introduced in censuses and official documents, reflecting a more nuanced understanding of diversity.

Kamala and her mother both seem to have gone through a period of race dysphoria. They both ended up picking the race that they figured would help them the most, phonies that they are. MAGA

 

[Dante]

Her mother is Indian. I just saw an old CNN special talking with her family back home in India. They have heavy accents and talked about how her mother being from India, her uncle lives in Delhi today. She visited India with her mother often as a kid.

She is probably more Indian than Jamaican. This is direct from a CNN special. A special they will disown if it means it would cost Harris 5% of the black vote.

The division of the Dem voters has made THEM racist. They are actually voting based on race. It's sick and it's time people spoke out about it being wrong. Marketing ones racial background if it is convenient for their purpose.

You people did this before -- with Barack Obama. How did that turn out for y'all?

So Harris is certainly NOT African-American. How can she be? Mother is Caucasian, father is Jamaican born.

Here’s Kamala Harris’ birth certificate. Scholars say there’s no VP eligibility debate

One law professor’s verdict: “Is Oakland U.S. soil? Yes, it is. That’s the full legal analysis.”

back in 2008: You sickos did this with Barack Obama. It did not fly. The "colored" people win anyways, because people like you make most of us normal white people sick -- sick to our stomachs. And we will vote for the "colored" people just to spite y'all.

LOL

Canadian, eh? You do know early records in Canada listed people as being "native?"

White people. "Native." People like you -- you people would see that and started hyperventilating that the people listed as being "native" are "not Indians!"




note: shh... the fake Canadian will have to look things up.

Jamaicans cannot be "black?" Okay. Kamala is not "African-American" shes a black "Jamaican-American"

 

[JLW]

It has been mentioned before and as can be seen from this old time map, Caucasian was defined as more than European. The Caucasian race was historically regarded as a biological taxon which, depending on which of the historical race classifications was being used, usually included ancient and modern populations from all or parts of Europe, Western Asia, Central Asia, South Asia, North Africa, and the Horn of Africa. Caucasian race - Wikipedia Kamala’s mother would have thus been considered Caucasian.

Looks like you were born to a Caucasian woman as well:

HATEFUL PEOPLE LIKE YOU TOO NEED TO WAKE UP

fyi:
Facts First: Trump’s claims are false. Harris did not “all of a sudden” begin identifying as Black. She has embraced and discussed her Black identity for decades, beginning long before she became a political candidate, while also honoring her South Asian heritage.

Harris graduated in 1986 from Howard University, a historically Black institution where she was a member of a historically Black sorority. After that, she was elected president of the association of Black law students in her second year at the University of California, Hastings College of the Law, she wrote in her 2019 memoir.

Politico reported in 2021 that, as a third-year student at the law school in 1989, Harris rose to speak against anti-Black racism at a campus demonstration prompted by the discovery of racist vandalism. Politico reported: “For Black students, she said, according to archives of the Hastings Law News, the cartoon was an example of ‘what we deal with all the time.’”

A profile of Harris in the publication AsianWeek in 2003, when she was running for San Francisco district attorney, was focused on her South Asian heritage. But it quoted Harris discussing her father as “a Black man” and saying, “I grew up with a strong Indian culture, and I was raised in a Black community. All my friends were Black and we got together and cooked Indian food and painted henna on our hands, and I never felt uncomfortable with my cultural background.”
