There’s a serious war going on right now regarding Kamala Harris blackness and her lineage

[GreatestLaker]

Her father is Jamaican and her mother is Indian. She is both Jamaican/black and Indian American since she was born in the states. She is not passing for any bodies white. So I don't understand the point of challenging her "Black Americaness". Just to clarify I call ADOS African Americans and I call our brothers and sisters from Africa/Caribbean/South America who were born or live here Black Americans.

Her father is actually a mulatto. I fail to see how Kamala who is only a 1/4 black is being considered black.

 

[FeloniousMonk]

She/They said all that shyt.

She's still a bedwench and STILL was a mistress to Willie Brown, and dont forget, she LOVED putting POC in jail.

But thats YOUR girl...

 

[Emoryal]

Preach.

The is OBVIOUS disinformation tactics from the Republicans and divisiveness with no reason by some black people, of which some black people are falling for it by hook, sink and liner

You can't fall for objective reality. A broken clock is right twice a day.

 

[Rhapscallion Démone]

All I did was give you her racial make up.

Her Father family also owned slaves as well.

And Obama didn't do shyt for ADOS.

He was sure to sign that Blue Lives Bill tho.

1) there were free people of color(ADOS) who owned slaves here in the USA. So what's your point?
2) Im sure the Trump/Drumpfs did also since they've been here since the 1800s and they continue to be racist til this day.
3) Obama has done alot for us.

4.) Yall really gonna let white people like Trump Junior and Anne Coulter turn reparations into butter biscuits? Is that what we doing in here? We doing tricks for treats? Really?

There are people in the ADOS ethnic group who are Mulatto. Other black ethnic groups in the diaspora have mulattos. The former leader of the ADOS faction on here was a German Creole Mulatto......I still don't know what that is and neither did Google when I asked.

That may be the case but the optics of someone (Kamala) with that lineage, explicitly expressing that she has no interest in reparations for black people who were descendants of American Slavery and that we should be happy to benefit from broader policies that are aimed at all poor people doesn’t sit well with me as an African American voter.

 

[Formerly Black Trash]

since when do Americans care about lineage.

For the longest, if you grew black in America, then you're black

Bruh you had Africans saying I’m not Black
Not all but I’ve heard it before in real life

shyt ain’t come from nowhere
Nikkas wanna rewrite history

 

[Da King]

bytch wanted NOTHING to do with her black half before she started running

Shout out to phife dawg

 

[pcpking]

I don't care if she was "Cicely Tyson" black and grew up in Sunflower Mississippi I aint fukking with her for her DA record and marrying a cac cop. So none of this shyt matters.

I get that but here's the thing. What does that have to do with Trump telling a black race woman that she has no right to share what shared at the debate? People are legitimately c00ning for reparations in here. You can disagree with her stances and policies and you dont have to like or vote for her but I'm not going to let Trump jr. Play me like a puppet. I got no strings to hold me down to make me laugh or make me frown.

 

[CashmereThoughts]

People are making this about everything else but what it's really about. This is about a White race American man questioning the experiences and authenticity of a Black race American woman. Putting her policies and likability aside, what Donald Jr did was problematic and he knows it because he deleted the tweet. Unless Harris is claiming she is ADOS, I dont see what she did wrong. She only talked about her plight as a Black race woman in the USA. She has a right to do that even if she is unlikable or has policies you do not agree with.

I personally don’t want to hear anybody speak about the black plight in this country who built their career the way she did. She is a cog in the system that monetizes the incarnation of black people and she participated proudly and aggressively.

FDB, her Indian daddy and her white husband.

You just described the Trump clan though

 

[Street Knowledge]

Let's be clear, she was a contributing factor. Without Michelle, Obama would not have had a strong Black American vote.

Define “strong black American vote”. 80%?

John Kerry 4 years prior a white man with a white wife got 88% of the black vote

She ain’t no different from the trump klan. And I have a feeling you know exactly why I’m saying this.

We can disagree. But as far as I’m concerned. We don’t need to take up for EVERY “black” person. People like her are the reason for the phrase “all skin folk ain’t kinfolk” Kamala with throw you under the B44 bus to advance her career. Believe that

 

[saturn7]

All you're doing is allowing yourself to be used by conservatives like to Trump to divide black people in this country.

Your dumb ass needs to realize there ain't gonna be no independence for us unless we are willing to raise arms.

Independence is only won at the end of a gun.

Do you have any other arguments against ADOS then this tired shyt you repeat everyday???

The issues ADOS has with America and this political system have NOTHING to do with Trump or whoever is in the WH right now.

Act like Democratic benign neglect only started one Trump became President.
