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

[xoxodede]

Look I don’t like Harris or porky the pigs tap dancing ass, but Roland Martin defending Kamala Harris against Donald Trump Jr. should not have been met with resident by another black person. Thats crazy to me.

True. But, why not just tell the truth and be clear. She is Black in RACE -- but she is not Black American/AA in terms of ethnicity/culture -- and has no connection with Black American/AA's in America - other than skin-tone/race. She does not share our lineage, history and culture.

You gotta be a cac.

Kamala Harris doesn't even look ambiguous. Anyone whose actually black can see she's black. She looks like the typical light skin black woman. She could pass as Beyonce's cousin. You calling for DNA tests to prove whether Beyonce or her cousins are black?

Here are Beyonce and her cousins:

Here is Kamala Harris:

Like I said earlier, she could pass as Beyonce's older cousin or Aunt. If you can't tell she'sa black woman then I can't help you. Most black people can tell who our people are. We not like white people. You are either non-black or have a poor ability to spot your own people if you think Kamala Harris looks non-black.

I've seen both of Beyoncé's black parents. I can't say the same for Kamala.

Ok just for clarity you consider the terms ADOS, African American, Black American, Afram synonymous? If so, I consider all of those but Black American synonymous. I use the term Black Americans to refer to other Diasporans born here in the states. Kamila was born in Oakland California and her father is Jamaican. I consider her Black American not African American/Ados/Afram. With that being said, when has she claimed to be ADOS and when did we start assuming that only ADOS experience racism or prejudice? If she is claiming to be ADOS then I could understand why Tone is upset but she was speaking about her experience as a Black Woman in America.

That's not the point. I don't appreciate this over-simplification of our issues. It's about generations of oppression. Her people were in Jamaica.

Have that same energy for Bob Marley, Biggie Smalls, Marcus Garvey and Usain Bolt then. Y’all won’t though What’s the difference between a black baby growing up in the US with black parents and a black baby growing up in the US with Nigerian parents? Both are black kids and both are going to be socialized as and treated as blacks in America. With this logic you just invalidated Obama’s entire Presidency.

Oh -- I do. I could care less about any of the people you mentioned. I am proud of their accomplishments --- but they are not Black American/AA -- and THAT IS OK!

Damn.
Obama is not Black American - I never claimed him as Black American. He is Kenyan-American. He is bi-racial. That is OK.

What's the difference? Ethnicity, LINEAGE, HISTORY, Culture.

Thanks

Except Roland was aiming that STFU not a trump but at ADOS. He’s been going against ADOS for the last couple of months.

The KKK supported separation you idiot. There is always a way to use somebodys force against them. You go left I use the fact you go left for my own agenda.

Its the game of war.

Black people want TRUE REPRESENTATION. NOT "PEOPLE OF COLOR", NOT "BLACK PEOPLE" we want the people with OUR HISTORY AND OUR SITUATION TO BE RECOGNIZED INDEPENDANTLY because they represent OUR INTERESTS.

You keep talking about guns and warfare. Well obtaining that racial designation isn't exactly storming the beaches of Normandy is it you dumbass?

The KKK supported black people being kept segregated as second class citizens. They didn't support us having our own independent country within the continental United States where we would have our own government.

And once again I think you don't understand how serious our situation is in this country with regard to white people and white supremacy. We can't even get white people to acknowledge police brutality even with overwhelming video evidence. They seem to have no problem with unarmed black men being killed. What leads you to believe they will ever support any political movement where we are seeking justice?

Black people will never get our interests heard in this country. PERIOD. Stop thinking there is a solution coming from the political process. It ain't happening.

Ok. Thank you for confirming I am dealing with a white troll.

Try your bullshyt elsewhere white boy.

 

[Reece]

This is why I'm convinced we are dealing with non-black trolls. They're obviously using this ADOS thing to have us just fighting each other.

There are plenty of mixed black people who have an ambiguous look where they would need to tell you that they're black for you to know. Kamala Harris is definitely not one of them. She CLEARLY looks black. I was actually shocked when they said she was half-Indian. I thought she was either a light skin black woman who had two light skin black parents or she was half black and half white. Now we got idiots trying to say she's really just Indian and just pretending to be black. Only someone who is non-black would say something that preposterous.

This what the girls at Howard look like in 2019

This what Kamala looked like back in the day

That’s a black woman. My aunt and others in my family have her exact tone. I would’ve just thought she was light skin Plus after learning that I have a lot more white dna than I thought I would’ve had, I feel silly attacking people for not being black enough.

Her people were in Jamaica

But her experiences as a Black woman are here. What she spoke about at the debate happened here. She was born here.

 

[General Muck Muck]

Obama was an "African American"...but you see what he did for #ADOS communities.

nikkas like @Swagnificent are just mad because they see how fast we evolved politically.

We see the game they trying to run on us.


So called people of color who spent their careers with no affiliation and love for our communities expect us to vote for them and even claim they can relate to us just because we both have melanin. They would have us believe we share the same concerns and are in the same boat.

Its disrespectful.

 

[xoxodede]

But her experiences as a Black woman are here. What she spoke about at the debate happened here. She was born here.

Great -- but that does not make her Black American/AA -- she is Black (race) but she is not apart of Black American culture or ethnicity.

 

[HarlemHottie]

But her experiences as a Black woman are here. What she spoke about at the debate happened here. She was born here.

No they're not. They're in Canada. With an Indian mother. That's not 'regular' blackness, Canadian or American.

You are so weak bro.


This movement doesn't need white peoples approval!



We just need more black people to get on board and hear the message.

 

[Reece]

This is what boggles my mind. I would never vote for Kamala Harris. But I ain't gonna turn around and vote for Joe Biden instead. It totally defeats the purpose.

If you gonna say a half black woman from Jamaica ain't good enough to represent your interest, then surely a racist old white man who supported segregation shouldn't get your vote.

Makes absolutely zero sense.

And with their logic Obama wasn’t the first Black President since he’s the son of a Kenyan. This is a straight internet incel twilight zone argument. 99% of normal Black people IRL would look at you like you were retarded if you started talking about Obama not being a real Black President.

Ok. Good. Lets talk politics. Who running right now is gonna do anything for black folks?

Who is this magical savior we should vote for?
