I found an interview with Kamala's aunt Dr, Sarala Gopalan in India. It's on WION titled kamala harries aunt speaks out..... it was from 3 years ago. When the reporter asks her about the black side of Kamala's ancestry she won't talk about it. I found it interesting.
@Melisa Sprague Yep Libtards are too stupid to understand that slavery and prejudice happened all over the world and white people had nothing to do with that. It goes against their narrative. They need to pick up a world history book.
Forever Falcon except there were black slave owners in America that had black and white slaves and indentured servants. Also, black slaves were sold to white Europeans by blacks; their own people.
@@foreverfalcon8117 almost all slavery historically was based on taking them from foreign lands e.g. spartans/helots, arabs/africans, scandanavians/anglos. Generally the only time it isn't like that is when tribes are too primative to travel to obtain slaves and just raid the nearest village e.g. germanic tribes, african tribes. Nothing to do with how evil you think white people are.
Slavery existed in every civilization before history began to be recorded. Be proud that America was one of the first countries to abolish it. There are some countries in Africa who hadn't abolished it until the 90s! Also those African slaves that ended up in America were a lot luckier than those owned by Islamic slavers. They castrated all male slaves and made females their concubines. That is why you don't find a large African former slave population in Islamic countries.
But they also a case when slave owner marry his slave but not free the slave because it more save for his family to stay as a slave in era when human especially African still part as human commodities and properties. By free the family that slave owner have, there are possibilities for his family to be enslave by others.
@@jeffmacdonald9863 there maybe a few but there are a cases like that. I never said there are many case like that, i said there are a case like that. When we talk about slavery to America we often think about the Atlantic Slave Network but that Network is not the only network since there also Pacific Slave Network when people from Pacific and the Indies (India, Indochina, Indonesia) brought to work in plantation in America continent like the African. And there also Indian Ocean slave network like when people from India or Indonesia brought by the colonizer to be sold as slave in the European Africa colony (Cape Malay in Cape town South Africa is the example). And there are a case of the Indonesian slave married with they slave master in era of Dutch colonial rule and many of the descendant today living in Netherlands
That wasn't the point of those pointing it out trying to take her down. Their point was, was that she has called for reparations and such from white people, some of whom are descended from slave owners., when she is a descendant of them herself.
So you just glossed over the race of her father, even though that’s who she’s claiming to get her Blackness from 🤦🏽♂️ Just because you use 2 Black emojis to represent her paternal grandparents does NOT make her Black.
Dude are u slow, Her literally just told you who her fathers grandparents were 🤷🏽♂️. Her father is a black Jamaican who had European ancestors because they enslaved his ancestors. The Same reason why I have European ancestors but I’m still black. Omg
I may not be a Kamala supporter but after careful research, her father is a black Jamaican. Jamaicans believe or not are also African descendants. Most people think that the transatlantic trades were just limited to North America. Well no it expanded to all the other America's as well. I'm no fan of Kamala running for president but I'm also not for spreading false information. Don't believe me research it and see for yourself
Many Jamaican ancestors were slave owners from Europe they prowled the slave Barracks at night or exploited domesticated slaves and had illegitimate children with them. Secondly, many poor European laborers from Ireland, Scotland, and Germany who were not slave owners had consensual relations with free blacks after slavery was abolished. You forgot to say first black American of Jamaican descent to hold this office. I have a first cousin with the same surname Harris and his paternal roots are also close to Brown's Town St.Ann and he is also a very light-skinned black person. Also in Jamaica, it is a very frequent thing to see a person of African descent who is also mixed with Indian/Asian due to a large number of indentured East Indian and Chinese laborers that arrived in the 1840s and onwards.
@@LOLE_Editz There is nothing complex with both her parents being of Indian ancestry with her father being part Irish. The only question was "Is she black?" and the answer is no.
@@LOLE_Editz if you tell most black people in the Americas that they have a white slave owner as an ancestor typically they will shrug their shoulders and be like yup sounds accurate, still black ! when are people going to learn that our ancestors that came from West Central Africa did not look like Kamala Harris, Corey Booker, Rihanna, or even a Beyonce clearly many things happened along the way.
If anyone has two parents who have both earned a Ph. D from University of California, Berkeley, that person definitely has an upper-middle to upper class background. Thus, when looking at Kamala Harris' background, it's also important to take into consideration class as well as race differences that the Democratic Party has historically emphasized. Accordingly, Ms. Harris may not have "white privilege", but she certainly had the upper-middle to upper-class privilege.
A upper class black person will be exposed to more racism b/c it puts them in direct contact with racist whites. A white co worker nearly lost his mind when he learned I made more money than him. A white neighbor went to prison after he tried to run me down with his car when I was 5, playing with my cousin on my family's property. My brother holds an MBA and had to sell his house last year after white neighbors started following him on his morning jog demanding him to prove he lived in the neighborhood. My sister is a famous TV Reporter who has to do her job with armed bodyguards after she was harassed by a white nationalist holding a rifle while calling her the NWORD. Class doesn't protect you from racism, it causes the opposite.

Raymond Nolan Scott African Slaves were brought to the Middle East by the Arab conquerors. Then when the Arabs started the trade with India and conquered Northern India “the Mughal dynasty “ by Tipu Sultan and others who invaded deeper into S India. Many intermarried local Indians and in the case of Pakistan the Balochi and Makranis who occupied were Africans who settled there. They too married locals. The following generations were now part of the 2 countries and are not identified on ethnic origins. They self identify as either Pakistani or Indian depending upon their place of residence. Power play divides people into groups but humans world over that they all are Homo sapiens. Only in America!
True the facts are they are over 2800 ethnic groups in Africa. And something like 2k plus languages native to Africa. It funny when we come to some other place on the globe, we all forget this and it's been striped from us. We are one the biggest diaspora ( by race ) , but we have lost our roots & knowledge of our culture.
Here’s why you guys are stupid. Before you all were saying her dad was white/indian, but Candace’s Jamaica “investigation” didn’t turn up any Indians. So now she to concoct a scheme to “prove” that Donald Harris isn’t her biological father, because CLEARLY he isn’t white! 😂 And Newsflash: Most Black people with slave ancestry has white male slave master dna through r*pe and other relations
Although pure “races” don’t exist and we are all biracial to a certain degree, I do believe how you identify matters. Kamala is able to switch between the two “races” because of her racial ambiguity.
She is another NWO product like Obama and his entire family. She was raised in Canada and and both her parents are not natural citizen which makes her a anchor baby and not suppose to be able to hold presidency. The fact that her lineage contains slave owners and she comes up against white people whom have never owned any slaves shows she is a hypocrite.
This comment section really proves that race is a social construct. Apparently it doesn't matter how she sees and identifies herself, everyone made their own decision in which box she should belong.
@@vilena5308 😂 you serious? Go see your medical record... Check the first field there, even before your name.... What does it say? Race right? 😂😂😂😂😂 Ever wondered why?! Again... We can literally determine an hominidae race by bone structure alone... So tell the audience how is race a social construct? 🤔 List resources and context
Still don't feel like being blind to race, which as you said, is an unscientific social construct often defined by racism itself, is a bad idea. Maybe it's just because I'm African born and know my roots somewhat. But there is a such thing as being hyper focused on race, and I don't think that's the solution.
Yup. After all if we let race be defined racism for any longer it's not really going to change. My opinion is people saying things like in this that "unfortunately they're still seen as different the 'society' " are subconsciously supporting the racist caste system of their society. It's not that the opposite of being focused on race or making things a "race thing" is to be "color-blind" but is to acknowledge that in reality skin color is not what's holding people back the most, more than race,, it's not the white wall of white supremacy is the green wall of impoverished non whites in America. Kamala, Obama, etc. Are a dime in a dozen, because of their families' affluence. The richer the person the less stigmatized they get. And that is why I think that acknowledging race as "unfortunately still a thing nowadays" in the slightest is embracing and agreeing with white supremacist lunatics who have way too much power in the minds of the American people. The way Race works in the USA is a racist concept which the public views as a counter to white supremacy but is actually working in support of it. Just like with the bipartisan elections, the USA always manages to keep the status quo under control.
Yeah, I think the left is really pinning to this white privilege thing and trying to bring black people up. Imo we should ignore race, and just fix the problems effecting them, like poverty, drugs, homicide, fatherless households. But fix them nationwide. Why specialise reform just for the needy that are POC...
It is certainly different in different countries, but here in the US, it's very easy for white people to be blind to race, but mostly what it does is shield us from seeing all the ways that our society isn't blind to race
It saddens me when generalization of races are just freely spoken and accepted in certain parts. I'm from South Africa and there are eleven official languages and even more ethnic groups just in that country alone. This topic is so complicated yet many have no idea. This video is such a good lesson for many of us.
Karen, Don't school us. We aren't impressed by race or degrees. Don't be sad either. This is politics. It's blood and gore. Kamala is an expert back stabber. She enslaved black males in California prisons to work as cheap labor for the state. She's purely about herself.
How is she claiming a race to further her ambition. She went to all black colleege. She was part of the black society in colleege. This is before she was even a prosecuter in california.
It wouldn't matter if she was saying from the gitgo she was different ethnicities but seems she's using one of them as a way to connect with those people, when as you pointed out shouldn't matter. People care about economy and no war . For a very long time, the rest gets argued and goes back n forth as tides change
I disagree. People of mixed race tend to use the race that will benefit them the most depending on the situation. Same can be said of a person with dual citizenship. It's also interesting that So many politicians have relatives in the media.
On Aug 4, 2024 they rewritten Google as mine went down including my Microsoft just they day before i was looking at her history they litterly changed it she was Indo-Jamaican. now they changed it she is black , and furthermore she is not a natural born citizen only by the 14th amendment she had lived in canada went to high school in Canada by the 14th amendment she cant become a President nor VP
The most incomplete chart you have ever posted. Was this done deliberately so that you did not have to talk about Kamala Harris white ancestors?! You failed to comment on the paternal lineage of Donald Harris. Donald Harris has said that both his father and maternal grandfather were both Scots. You failed to comment on the caste of Kamala's mother. She was Brahman caste which means she would not have shared ancestors with lower caste people in her Tamil community
Race is not purely a social construct....it is definitely connected to genetics and skin color. Kamala Harris has chosen to identify as black only to get black votes and so she can claim she belongs to a victimised group rather than a privileged Asian Indian upper middle class origin. Her mother brought her up, she had virtually no contact with her dad. Her mother was a Tamil Brahmin and Brahmins are the most privileged group among Tamils and South Indians in general. Tamil Brahmins are among the elite in South India, both because of their Brahmin status and their higher educational and financial credentials. But Kamala rarely talks about her Brahmin descent. In India caste is more important than just ethnicity and Brahmins are the highest caste.
What are you trying to say? It will be a lot easier to just say, “middle class”. Which could be redefined as upper and lower. Also, her parents were well educated. All of it helped to make her the person she is today. So what?.. It would be a lot easier to just judge her by who she is. But America is not color blind, or capable to overcome prejudices or biases. So here we go again.
I beg to differ. Skin color is determined by a tiny percentage of our genes. There are far more important genetic differences, such as those that determine facial bone structure, or prevalence of certain diseases. Ethiopians are a Semitic people-; that 's why their noses are aquiline, not flat. One of Sri Lanka's ethnic groups have coal black skin, darker than any African's, yet they have no genetic connection with Africans. Climate is a big factor: ethnic groups who live in tropical climes, or have ancestors who did, have darker skin because melanin protects against the sun. If you start at equatorial Africa and head north, people's skin color lightens imperceptibly, reaching Mediterranean olive skin to north European pinkish white skin to Finnish skin, which can be literally white. So if skin color defines "race," there are thousands of races, and the term loses any meaning.
@tarunhari1144 ... Thank you. I totally agree with you on what I know. In regards to what I don't know: It is great to be informed. Don't mind these other sub-comments. They don't like your neutral stands and wanna turn this in a certain political direction.
She choose to be black because she knows being Indian in USA is a disadvantage, infact Indians are the most unwelcomed group in USA but you seem to ignore this saying oh boo hoo they are rich upper class lmao 😂😂 also most brahmins are poor atleast historically they were in Bengal
When dealing with people who are themselves from Africa, yes. When dealing with the descendants of African slaves in the Americas, not really. Their exact origins are rarely known and often mixed anyways. To be honest it's much the same for European immigrants to America. The first generation or two are often specified by country, but past that it blurs into generic European American, or as we usually call it "white" or just "American". The same isn't said of African Americans, because this country has historically been too racist to accept black people are really American and to a lesser extent still is so.
Thank you for the detailed breakdown. Also, similar case applies to the native Taíno people in the Caribbean. According to a recent study, there's zero paternal lineage, i.e. Taíno males were killed and the women raped by the explorers, so modern Taíno people like in Puerto Rico only have maternal lineage.
@@aztekempire who told you that? The Taino were the first people on the Caribbean right?. So that make them the indigenous people or native. I suggest you watch the video of Tanio people.
@@sophiawilson8696 🇵🇷 dont have nothing of indigenous taino ppl They mix with black and white Theres no such a thing as indigenous puertoricans As indigenous ppl from mexico peru o Ecuador
yes Harris is mixed race not simply black. The contradictions in this video are hilarious. He stated that she is from a mixed family, stated indian is not a race and then concluded she is black and indian descent.
So your black (when mixed with white or whatever) to appeal to circumstances. They choose to identify with a race to be a "victim". Obama .. did the same. He portrayed himself as the "first black".. and now she is portraying herself as the "first black" I have more respect for a person with character & class and being black as they come, (than a self identifying black to be "the first" as their identity to be noticed) And Harris's ancestors WERE slave owners, they even had a town named after them. Im just sick of the race card used to whatever advantage that will make headlines or votes. It would be refreshing to have people get a job, because they earn it and have incredible character. Regardless what race.
You are most definitely white and clueless. So, you're saying if someone is mixed race, mixed with black. And they claim black, they are a victim? Well that's racist logic in itself. Claiming blackness makes you a victim? So, if Barak said he was white, how would that have gone over? LOL Obama and Kamala can't identify with the non-black parent because American society won't allow them. Obama can't go around saying he's white because he doesn't look it. Neither can Kamala go around saying she's Indian because she also doesn't look like an Indian woman. If either one of them did, they'd be put in their place immediately! Especially in their generation. They chose to identify with being black because that's what society sees and treats them as such. And you think Trump was qualified when he became president?!!!! He's still not qualified. He plays victim, constantly whines and is a total loser!
No that is not true Obama never said he was black, the American culture did that to him. She said she is half black and half indian, people just ignore the fact she she half indian and focused on the black part. What you do not get mixed people get rejected, she did identify as black but they said she is not black enough.
Hey PG... clearly you're too slow to comprehend the video, so let me explain it to you in more graphic terms that you'll understand! Madam VP Kamala Harris' ancestors weren't slave owners! Her ancestors were *_RAPED_* by slave owners...!!! Hope that helped...!!! (SMH!!!)
Her ancestors have the name of a white founder of a town in Jamaica. That founder, though a slave owner, may have had nothing to do with the genetics of her father, because slaves take the name of their owner, whether or not they are sexually abused by that owner.
If you are of mixed race you are not identified as the race of the "least privileged group" you are identified as part of the minority group in a given context. My children are half European (Dutch) and half Indian (Gujarati). In their sports teams, where the majority were European, they were referred to as Indian, at their Gujarati language classes at the local Hindu Temple, where all other pupils were of full Gujarati Ancestry, they were referred to as White. In both cases this was not done in any negative way. This was just a way for them to be quickly identified and was, at worst, a subject of interest and curiosity on the part of the other children they were interacting with
I totally agree. The designation of "race" if you have different ones represented by your parents, ends up being what you look most like, and what's socially acceptable at the time.
The narrator said he was talking about the general attitude in the US. I get the feeling you don’t live in the US because it’s uncommon for someone who isn’t and/or doesn’t look full European to be called white. I have friends from South America who are considered white in their countries but not in the US.
Fox be like : *Kamala has ancestors that are slave holders* Me : *Imagine counting rapists as “Ancestors” , and no, don’t try to pretend Jamaica didn’t have slavery*
This video had little to do with deconstructing her entire family tree, as was initially depicted at the beginning of the video, but rather about pushing an ideological viewpoint on race and ethnicity.
African Americans were given US citizenship in 1800s before Native Americans. Native Americans weren't given the right of US citizenship until 1924. Yet they're the natural born citizen of the United States before the European American.
The depiction of people of DIASPORA is so misconstrued. Black is not a race. Black is a negative description. When they came over on the ships they were AFRICAN.

One cannot deny an Indian mother and black Jamacian father = bi-racial but who cares? White people don't want their "race" tainted and people of "color" are happy to see that "people of color" are achieving highly respected positions in our society.

ADOS/Black Americans or American descendants of slavery have a history in the USA that goes like this.. 250 years of chattel slavery, followed by 100 years of Jim Crow laws and wealth stealing practices the have left this PARTICULAR ETHNIC group wealthless. This PARTICULAR group has also dealt with redlining, black codes, debt peonage and countless lynchings and massacres. This PARTICULAR ETHNIC group worked for 250 years for free as slaves unable to gain wealth, read or write. Then after that for another 100 years this PARTICULAR ETHNIC GROUP had laws written SPECIFICALLY to keep them from gaining wealth, accessing benefits like the GI Bill, the Homestead Act which provided millions of acres of free land to US citizens, proper schools, neighborhoods, jobs etc. which has led to the massive racial wealth gap. Kamala Harris, while having the DNA of an African, she is not of this PARTICULAR ETHNIC GROUP. Her mother is a Brahmin Indian professional. She was a high earning woman from a top caste lineage. Brahmin Indians are basically the white people of India. Her father is part Jamaican from a slave trader lineage opposite that of ADOS and was also a high earning professional. Her life and family has not had the same set backs as those who are descendants of American Chattel slavery. It doesn't mean she is a bad person. It simply means she is not some miracle success story as she would be if she were ADOS. She is 1/4 "black" and born in America to affluent parents, but she is not ADOS/black American. Kamala has had anti ADOS policies her entire career. She is against reparations for ADOS. She has made a career locking up ADOS/Black Americans. She is not ADOS. She has always been considered Indian American but since ADOS/Black Americans are politically uneducated and vote mostly based on race, she is being advertised as Black American to garner the black vote. Calling her African American is misleading. She has a drop of African blood but as I mentioned there is much more to being African American/ADOS than blood
Blakely if you search RUclips you can find interviews of people she kept incarcerated past their time. One guy she actually blocked his attempt to submit his DNA to prove he was innocent. Oh and the bomb Tulsi dropped on her during a debate... I’m surprised she accepted the nomination. But I honestly don’t think she has done the things she’s done out of hatred or malice. I think she was apathetic to black people a t the were a casualty to her political career advancement.

Great video. She shouldn't be referred to as an african american. Shes jamacan american or tamil/Indian american. African American should be reserved as an ethnic category for those whose ancestors were enslaved in this country.
Yeah but you have to understand her Jamaican father had ancestors that are descendants of European slave traders and slave owners. Meaning that her ancestors were enslaved on a Jamaican plantation in Montego Bay. Meaning that she has European ancestors and African ancestors.
@@mariamart_0 yep. Besides she was born on the solid of America. Therefore, she is a born AMERICAN. The problem is MOST Americans do not understand the difference between👉Nationality,Ethnicity or RACE.
It is most certainly true that African Americans are the foundational ethnic group, and Kamala Harris has Jamaican ancestry, through her paternal line and therefore could claim to be Jamaican American or Caribbean American, if she desired to. It's interesting that Kamala seems to identify more with African American culture than she does the Caribbean cultures, particularly Jamaican culture. Her parents' divorce when she was a small child could explain this disconnection. In an interview, she stated that her mother learned everything she could about African American culture, so they would fit into American society.
I'm a mixed USian, too, and when I've traveled outside of the US, I'm not treated like I am here.

I feel like this could have been edited a little tighter. Spacing the ethnicity part out with examples on the tree, instead of the 4 minute odd block that made it seem you were never getting around to the actual tree. Seems more like a rant than a lecture as it is. I'd probably try and intermingle the two goals here a little more, one seems like a tangent of the other, more than a combined example.
Charts of family trees of politicians may be interesting to some, but I really hope this won't be a regular thing on UsefulCharts. I subscribed for the charts about history, not commentaries about race spurned by sketchy American politicians.
Hamilton Brown wasn't really Irish, he was born in Ireland, but his family were Ulster-Scots Presbyterians who were colonizers of Ireland and oppressed the native Irish.

Kamala Harris is South Asian and Jamaican. Dr. Shyamala Gopalan Harris raised her daughters to identify as Black and embrace their Indian heritage. That does not mean one race is favored over the other. It means society assigns race the way people look on the outside.
“Born in 1776, Hamilton Brown (a White man) came from Tullyloob, County Down, Ireland to Jamaica in order to earn his fortune. He came with his uncle, Alexander Hawthorne who became an attorney and found the young Hamilton a job as an estate bookkeeper for a new friend in Jamaica. Within a few years, Hamilton Brown had made a name for himself; buying and selling slaves and property. He would mortgage the property and before long owned more than 6 properties, each with a slave population. He lived in Saint Ann parish on the eastern side of Jamaica and represented the parish for 22 years in the House of Assembly of Jamaica. He founded Hamilton Town, which was later renamed Browns Town. He was a sugar planter and cattle breeder. He brought over 300 people from Balleymoney, County Antrim, Ireland to Saint Anne in a brig that he owned, but most were little more than white slaves unless they had specific skills. He was often criticized for his treatment of his slaves and workers. When he died in 1843 it is guessed that he had more than 30 children himself by different slave women, a common thing for slave owners in Jamaica. Although he never married, he left part of his property to his son Hamilton Brown Jr, a mulatto whose mother was Kate Williams, a Negro Ebo slave who was brought to Jamaica before 1832 when slavery was abolished in Great Britain” source: Ancestors of Hamilton Brown Slave Owner by Diana Muir - Author. It was after slavery was abolished by Great Britain that he began bringing more poor Irish over to Jamaica.

@@m.s9146 "Caucasian" is not a race; it is a geographic designation, referring to the Caucasus, the land mass between the Caspian Sea and the Black Sea. Around 1790 a German physician published a book in which he categorized the races of the world and he decided that the ancestors of white people came from the Caucasus (where the native people are not light skinned). The misnomer has been widely circulated since then.

@Taz Ward You do know that Africans were brought to Jamaica as slaves and were held in bondage there for nearly as long as in the US, right? Her black ancestors were not slaves in the US, but they did share the Atlantic slave trade ancestry with enslaved people in the US. It's just that the ship they were taken on stopped and sold them off a little bit sooner. They went through the atrocities of slavery in Jamaica instead of in the US. I agree it's reasonable to limit US reparations for slavery and Jim Crow to descendants of people enslaved in the US, but that doesn't mean deciding that other people of African descent aren't Black or that Americans of African descent aren't African American.
hmm- so you totally ignored her father's line? it is most interesting. and i have it. it is not at all what you assume since Chrishy was born to Mary Mulvaney Brown and Hamilton Brown. they were married btw. not at all unusual in Jamaica. maybe you need to do more research? Christiana, who they called Chrishy, was not illegitimate at all it seems. she was the daughter of Hamilton's second wife. they married -- yeah you heard that right- married- after his first wife Isabella died. so no, she wasn't a product of rape. she was a product of marriage. since both of his grandmothers, including Miss Iris Fenigan Christie were black- most likely Creole- then it seems his great grandfather had chosen a black woman as a wife the second time around. i don't know if his first two sons were white, but both his daughters were black. oh and another thing, Hamilton was Mary's second husband. she was married to a Brown before him, which is why her name is listed as Brown before she married him. i don't know what her maiden name was- it never showed up on anything I researched. but i am sure someone somewhere will find it.
Thanks. Much closer to what I recall coming across. I know many issue oriented people, especially from California, who had much disdain for her actions as Attorney General. It was around the time word was out she was selected early 2016 by the big Dem donors, as not to run as Hillary's VP, but rather to be the next in line. My friends and co-workers were quick to squawk about her claims with respect to race. I did look at some articles by her father, around the time he publicly said something negative about her public statements. I was merely casually interested at the time. It was an easy find then.
Sources for any of that? It doesn't really make sense though. The timeline is too short. The slave owner Hamilton Brown was obviously from the early 1800s, before slavery was abolished in Jamaica. He apparently died in 1843. He can't really have been Miss Chrishy's father, since she died in the early 60s, according to Donald Harris. There need to be at least one more generation - quite possibly more. According to Snopes, there was a second Hamilton Brown involved, who may be who you were looking at. They suggest that the Mary Melvina Brown who married that Hamilton Brown was the daughter of the slave owner Hamilton Brown. Still no direct link to Christiana though. The slave rape would have been a generation or two before Christiana, since it would have needed to be in the slavery days, which ended in Jamaica in the 1830s. Regardless of any of that and regardless of any documented ancestry, it's practically impossible to be Jamaican and black (or mixed) without having slaves in your ancestry - unless it's from known very recent African immigrants. The original African population was brought there as slaves and there was little voluntary immigration from Africa after that.
@TheDotaGuyN'LetsNotForgetCS GO Even granting that, which isn't entirely clear, that "free black woman" either had been a slave or was the descendant of slaves, since that's what Africans were brought to Jamaica for.

An investigation into Kamala Harris’s ancestry raises significant questions about the accuracy of her claims. According to records presented, Harris’s paternal grandmother, Beryl, passed away in 1960, four years before Kamala was born. Despite this, Kamala included a photo in her 2019 book claiming to be with her grandmother, which appears misleading. Furthermore, Kamala’s portrayal of her racial heritage as primarily black is questionable. Her father, Donald Harris, grew up in Jamaica, but his ancestry traces back to Irish slave owners who owned over 1,000 slaves on their estate in Jamaica, known as Brownstown. This suggests a complex heritage that includes both Irish and black ancestry, rather than purely African descent. Additionally, inconsistencies in family records, such as missing marriage certificates and the inability to locate certain relatives, raise further doubts about the narrative presented. It is essential to critically examine these claims, especially when they shape public perception of a figure’s heritage and identity.

"How society chooses to define them" is a difficult point because in this context society means "the aggregate of individual behavior" rather than formal rules from e.g. regulation, law, etc. So I would argue what you actually mean is a sort of average of how individuals respond to individuals who have specific physical traits. On one hand it's a small distinction, but on the other hand it's a huge distinction because it's relatively simple to change laws democratically, and enforcing rules about private interactions between individuals is something that can't or shouldn't be the purview of the State. I really like your videos. Thanks!
And it is brilliant and rich with evidence and historical documents as well as her interviews with Kamala’s relatives in Jamaica. It is as fascinating as it is revealing and convincing. Great detective work.

The first poem I learned. Nancy Hanks If Nancy Hanks Came back as a ghost, Seeking news Of what she loved most, She’d ask first “Where’s my son? What’s happened to Abe? What’s he done?” “Poor little Abe, Left all alone Except for Tom, Who’s a rolling stone; He was only nine The year I died. I remember still How hard he cried.” “Scraping along In a little shack, With hardly a shirt To cover his back, And a prairie wind To blow him down, Or pinching times If he went to town.” “You wouldn’t know About my son? Did he grow tall? Did he have fun? Did he learn to read? Did he get to town? Do you know his name? Did he get on?”

Quote; @3:57, "According to most experts today, race is simply a social construct and has no real basis in science". So, similarly to gender being also known as a social construct, race can encompasses any range of identities that a person choses to be, ie, black, white, brown, etc.?

Thank you for this video. I am a Biology teacher and have to explain this concept all the time. In Biological studies nobody talks about race. Even in purely genetic terms we as humans have far more in common with each other that our ethnicities might suggest. Those DNA testing companies mostly lie to you when they tell you that they can pinpoint your ethnicity or where you or your ancestors came from. Some groups that have very distinctive genetic anomalies that have perpetuated in close knit communities can be pinpointed, but that is not very common. It is rather silly that people get so hide bound about determining a persons ethnicity when really all human kind is just a continuum of similar genetic traits, the rest is just environment.
The concept of race is simply a grouping term that is used to simplify discussions. We do this all the time, such as mountains or hills, countries or regions, languages and dialects. Is it really so complicated that you can't just explain it how it actually is?
I just hope Kamala Harris will settle down and act like a vp. She has the tendency to go off the rail. I don't care if she is not black enough just work hard to defeat Trump.
Because she was a woman, which he promised. She's a person of colour, which could help him win the black vote (which he needs to consolidate after his recent blunders). And she was a presidential nominee with experience and name recognition. She was the frontrunner, and expected choice.
@Adam Alperstein Irish/Pakistani. Dont know why that matters though. He clearly alienated alot of black people after his "you ain't black" and "black kids are just as capable as smart kids.. NO.. white kids" and he risks many joining the never Biden movement. Just makes sense from a strategy standpoint to choose a POC, especially "black" but I hear that her calling herself black may be controversial though, I haven't read into it though.
@Adam Alperstein Don't try to marginalise people who don't come from your community, lest you be racist. I can analyse any race's issues, likelihood to vote, and who for. Race doesn't matter...
Could you say that Black and White could be their own ethnicities? In the sense that Black people in the United States have ethnic ancestry from West Africa and Europe. So this combination, combined with the unique culture found in the United States, could make the argument that Black is its own ethnicity. The same could be said for Whites too as Whites in the United States are pretty much just a mixture of different European ethnic groups. You wouldn’t call an ethnic Frenchman White because chances are they would be 100% French and not a mixture of different European ethnic groups.
The problem there is that you're using language and location to define GENETICS! Ethnicity is a people living and breeding in one place for generations, but generally only IMPLIED that they're weren't other people there they mixed with or others who entered their community, or members who left and came back with children from another ethnic group! Too many variables and a geneticist would be hard pressed to recognize these on a test! Negroid, Caucazoid and a mix between the two is Mongoloid. Keep it simple and there will be less tribalism

It's almost impossible to classify french people in a relative racial space, France was built by political will and power struggle over a vast land of VERY diverse ethnicities, Germanic, scandinavian, celtic, basque etc...and now since the sixties unfortunatly a lot of Africans with very different cultures, religion and historical backgrounds that is tearing this country, that was so hard to unify, apart, and there will be no political will to force integration by law and force like it happened in the past, this country is done for and will probably have fragmented in tens of different nations in less than 50 years
Imagine the mental gymnastics required for someone to recognise the subtle genetic differences between neighboring, marginal ethnic groups - separated by a hill and probably a few hundred years of history - yet who can wilfully deny the existence of any genetic difference between geographic groupings of said ethnicities - separated by oceans, massive deserts and the literal millenia of human history necessary to find a common ancestor - genetic differences so distinct and obvious that one can easily discern them visually - no DNA test even required.
That last part explains your flaw. Race in the modern day is shallow and unscientific. After all, you even laid out the fact that ethnicity is more nuanced and basically serves the same purpose as race. So why not just use that? The problem with race is that it is too fluid and broad to be a scientific categorization. Rather it serves as a social categorization; thus race is real but not scientific and is a social construct. In addition, the meaning of races change over time as it has been used to include some Jews and Middle Eastern peoples when they would definitely be seen as a different race in Ancient Rome or Greece. Race also changes based on cultures as well. For example, up until pretty recently in human history (about a hundred years back) native "Han" Chinese still considered Manchus to be an "other" even though from a Western perspective they were practically the same. And that's the thing some countries don't even use race because it's so arbitrary to call yourself Asian in a country like Malaysia or White in a country like Germany.
The comments & the video doesn’t make sense.. First of all the mentioning of Black Americans history is irrelevant. Both of Kamala’s parents are not from the United States of America. So their ethnic makeup doesn’t match a Black Americans. Also, the all Blacks have white blood from slavery; is partly true. The slave owners would be hundreds of years back in the family tree. slavery was over more than 250 years ago. Jamaican slave owners 4 generations back, means thats her family and heritage. it's most likely from intentional marriage. Slavery in Black Americans blood line is hundreds of years back.. not a couple of generations.
I wish you would just define my racial identity so that I may adequately lable my victim card. This guy totally exposes his bias in his descriptions and tone compared to other videos I've seen from this site
Several “far right” outlets, really that was unnecessary, like as a conservative I didn’t find any problems with this video, except you’re obviously hardcore defending her for whatever reason, but I do think there is a hypocrisy with her choosing to switch between races a lot. But no it wasn’t far right outlets, it was conservative media, these weren’t neo-nazi and white supremacist sights, and I think that was a very ignorant thing to say in my opinion
She says she is both Indian and black. You don't have to choose shen your both so she can be saying I'm Indian and she's right, she can say I'm black and she's also right, she did say she's not African American, it's because she sees herself of Jamaican ancestry wich is an island in the Caribbean not Africa.
Kamala spent a good portion of her life in Canada, for any proud Canadians watching. Her mom did cancer research in Quebec, where Kamala and her sister then went to school.
@5:33min This video's laughable & disingenuous definition of RACE: "How the person chooses to define themselves and how society chooses to define them." Is like saying anyone can choose to be a dog. Ludicrous.
@Dirt Law502 How stultifyingly ignorant of history can you be to blame the descendants of raped slaves because a “former slave owner” was a paternal ancestor? Or perhaps you’re just a troll who refuses to acknowledge that literally OWNING another human being in the same way you might own livestock gives you absolute control over even the very breath in that person’s body, so it goes without saying you are also free to exploit them sexually in any way you see fit. “Benefited from slavery” you say? Seriously? Obviously, your “pure whiteness” has done nothing whatsoever towards endowing you with critical thinking skills. What’s sad is, you’re probably too stupid to feel embarrassed.

But you can group ethnicity (or a major derivative of it), haplogroups diverge and splinter off from one another through mutations just like language trees. It is not unscientific to say that the R1A haplogroup shares more in common with R1B haplogroup than with the J1 haplogroup. And when graphed out obvious clusters show themselves easily.
@@Silver_Knee It is actually pretty neat: boys inherit their father's haplogroup and girls inherit their mother's haplogroup. The only time new (or any) haplogroups are/have formed are when a very very very unprobable mutation happens
Haplogroups describe 1% of genetic ancestry at best - the ones from purely female and purely male lines, all the other ancestral lineages are not described by haplogroups. Also, the same individual may have absolutely different results for mtDNA haplogroup and for Y-DNA haplogroup, if their all-male and all-female ancestries come from different populations. One may well be a 100% Western European by Y-DNA and 100% Native American by mtDNA (because those bits of DNA don't mish-mash in crossingover, so they all give you 100% result from one source). I believe there was a video with clearly black girl having a nasty response to a genetic company, which promised to tell her where her African ancestry comes from by studying only mtDNA, but her mtDNA turned out to be from British Isles. Because mtDNA literally contains only a tiny bit of your overall genetic ancestry. Plus, bold for them to assume that all black people have mtDNA lineages only from Africa
That seems kinda arbitrary. And I don't get how this would inform what race someone is. If a line of 3 generations of mother-daughter define the haplogroup of the last daughter of the line, but all the fathers in the picture came from a different haplogroup, that daughter would also have inherited many of their traits. Like, with a bit of bad luck, she may have none of the genes in common with her great grandmother.

@@foreverfalcon8117 almost all slavery historically was based on taking them from foreign lands e.g. spartans/helots, arabs/africans, scandanavians/anglos. Generally the only time it isn't like that is when tribes are too primative to travel to obtain slaves and just raid the nearest village e.g. germanic tribes, african tribes. Nothing to do with how evil you think white people are.
Slavery existed in every civilization before history began to be recorded. Be proud that America was one of the first countries to abolish it. There are some countries in Africa who hadn't abolished it until the 90s!
Also those African slaves that ended up in America were a lot luckier than those owned by Islamic slavers. They castrated all male slaves and made females their concubines. That is why you don't find a large African former slave population in Islamic countries.
Many slave owners raped their slaves and had mixed offspring who were also enslaved. Being a descendant does not mean a welcomed part of the family.
But they also a case when slave owner marry his slave but not free the slave because it more save for his family to stay as a slave in era when human especially African still part as human commodities and properties.

I may not be a Kamala supporter but after careful research, her father is a black Jamaican. Jamaicans believe or not are also African descendants.

I'm no fan of Kamala running for president but I'm also not for spreading false information. Don't believe me research it and see for yourself
Irish @@sweetlondon6659
Many Jamaican ancestors were slave owners from Europe they prowled the slave Barracks at night or exploited domesticated slaves and had illegitimate children with them. Secondly, many poor European laborers from Ireland, Scotland, and Germany who were not slave owners had consensual relations with free blacks after slavery was abolished. You forgot to say first black American of Jamaican descent to hold this office. I have a first cousin with the same surname Harris and his paternal roots are also close to Brown's Town St.Ann and he is also a very light-skinned black person. Also in Jamaica, it is a very frequent thing to see a person of African descent who is also mixed with Indian/Asian due to a large number of indentured East Indian and Chinese laborers that arrived in the 1840s and onwards.
Jamaican is a nationality. There are Chinese Jamaicans FCS,
I can confirm, I'm of a similar racial complexity to Harris despite both sides of my family being black.
@@LOLE_Editz There is nothing complex with both her parents being of Indian ancestry with her father being part Irish.
The only question was "Is she black?" and the answer is no.
@@LOLE_Editz if you tell most black people in the Americas that they have a white slave owner as an ancestor typically they will shrug their shoulders and be like yup sounds accurate, still black ! when are people going to learn that our ancestors that came from West Central Africa did not look like Kamala Harris, Corey Booker, Rihanna, or even a Beyonce clearly many things happened along the way.
@jeffspicolli593 it wouldn't be part Irish, just maybe 3/4, just like majority of black Jamaicans. Majority of us have Irish last names
If anyone has two parents who have both earned a Ph. D from University of California, Berkeley, that person definitely has an upper-middle to upper class background. Thus, when looking at Kamala Harris' background, it's also important to take into consideration class as well as race differences that the Democratic Party has historically emphasized. Accordingly, Ms. Harris may not have "white privilege", but she certainly had the upper-middle to upper-class privilege.
Yep class is the real divider. Race is just low hanging fruit
So much privilege that she was able to keep numerous black men incarcerated on misdemeanor drug charges quite unfairly.
A upper class black person will be exposed to more racism b/c it puts them in direct contact with racist whites. A white co worker nearly lost his mind when he learned I made more money than him. A white neighbor went to prison after he tried to run me down with his car when I was 5, playing with my cousin on my family's property.
My brother holds an MBA and had to sell his house last year after white neighbors started following him on his morning jog demanding him to prove he lived in the neighborhood.
My sister is a famous TV Reporter who has to do her job with armed bodyguards after she was harassed by a white nationalist holding a rifle while calling her the NWORD.
Class doesn't protect you from racism, it causes the opposite.

You might want to examine this again as there is information surfacing about donald harris
Africa has thousands of ethnic groups and that includes over 250 in Nigeria
therefore, the world has thousands of ethnic groups
Raymond Nolan Scott They were also colonized by the British French and Portuguese
Cheryl Dias don’t forget the German
Raymond Nolan Scott African Slaves were brought to the Middle East by the Arab conquerors. Then when the Arabs started the trade with India and conquered Northern India “the Mughal dynasty “ by Tipu Sultan and others who invaded deeper into S India. Many intermarried local Indians and in the case of Pakistan the Balochi and Makranis who occupied were Africans who settled there. They too married locals. The following generations were now part of the 2 countries and are not identified on ethnic origins. They self identify as either Pakistani or Indian depending upon their place of residence. Power play divides people into groups but humans world over that they all are Homo sapiens. Only in America!
True the facts are they are over 2800 ethnic groups in Africa. And something like 2k plus languages native to Africa.
It funny when we come to some other place on the globe, we all forget this and it's been striped from us. We are one the biggest diaspora ( by race ) , but we have lost our roots & knowledge of our culture.
@pepe0801 thanks, I corrected that but way over 2000 ethnic groups and if you count the sub-groups probably even more .
Candace Owens does an extremely deep dive on this subject using official documents (not hearsay) which is very interesting.
Here’s why you guys are stupid. Before you all were saying her dad was white/indian, but Candace’s Jamaica “investigation” didn’t turn up any Indians. So now she to concoct a scheme to “prove” that Donald Harris isn’t her biological father, because CLEARLY he isn’t white! 😂 And Newsflash: Most Black people with slave ancestry has white male slave master dna through r*pe and other relations

Although pure “races” don’t exist and we are all biracial to a certain degree, I do believe how you identify matters.
Kamala is able to switch between the two “races” because of her racial ambiguity.
She's American with immigrant parents from two other countries
She is another NWO product like Obama and his entire family. She was raised in Canada and and both her parents are not natural citizen which makes her a anchor baby and not suppose to be able to hold presidency.

Curious key photos missing ('Beryl'), given her photos of same in her autobiography....
Still don't feel like being blind to race, which as you said, is an unscientific social construct often defined by racism itself, is a bad idea. Maybe it's just because I'm African born and know my roots somewhat. But there is a such thing as being hyper focused on race, and I don't think that's the solution.
Yup. After all if we let race be defined racism for any longer it's not really going to change. My opinion is people saying things like in this that "unfortunately they're still seen as different the 'society' " are subconsciously supporting the racist caste system of their society. It's not that the opposite of being focused on race or making things a "race thing" is to be "color-blind" but is to acknowledge that in reality skin color is not what's holding people back the most, more than race,, it's not the white wall of white supremacy is the green wall of impoverished non whites in America. Kamala, Obama, etc. Are a dime in a dozen, because of their families' affluence. The richer the person the less stigmatized they get. And that is why I think that acknowledging race as "unfortunately still a thing nowadays" in the slightest is embracing and agreeing with white supremacist lunatics who have way too much power in the minds of the American people.
The way Race works in the USA is a racist concept which the public views as a counter to white supremacy but is actually working in support of it. Just like with the bipartisan elections, the USA always manages to keep the status quo under control.
Yeah, I think the left is really pinning to this white privilege thing and trying to bring black people up. Imo we should ignore race, and just fix the problems effecting them, like poverty, drugs, homicide, fatherless households. But fix them nationwide. Why specialise reform just for the needy that are POC...
It is certainly different in different countries, but here in the US, it's very easy for white people to be blind to race, but mostly what it does is shield us from seeing all the ways that our society isn't blind to race
@@Oscar-vv6dn Yeah the obsession with race/gender is completely and utterly regressive.
well the fact that you "feel like" it's proof that race is in fact, a social construct.
It saddens me when generalization of races are just freely spoken and accepted in certain parts. I'm from South Africa and there are eleven official languages and even more ethnic groups just in that country alone. This topic is so complicated yet many have no idea. This video is such a good lesson for many of us.
Race isn't even scientifically applicable.
Karen, Don't school us. We aren't impressed by race or degrees. Don't be sad either. This is politics. It's blood and gore. Kamala is an expert back stabber. She enslaved black males in California prisons to work as cheap labor for the state. She's purely about herself.
Sir I’m a young black girl and was wondering if you could please explain what the things you wrote mean please?

The most incomplete chart you have ever posted. Was this done deliberately so that you did not have to talk about Kamala Harris white ancestors?!
You failed to comment on the paternal lineage of Donald Harris. Donald Harris has said that both his father and maternal grandfather were both Scots.
You failed to comment on the caste of Kamala's mother. She was Brahman caste which means she would not have shared ancestors with lower caste people in her Tamil community
Exactly he skimmed over it to have a sympathetic view of kamala harris
Race is not purely a social construct....it is definitely connected to genetics and skin color. Kamala Harris has chosen to identify as black only to get black votes and so she can claim she belongs to a victimised group rather than a privileged Asian Indian upper middle class origin. Her mother brought her up, she had virtually no contact with her dad. Her mother was a Tamil Brahmin and Brahmins are the most privileged group among Tamils and South Indians in general. Tamil Brahmins are among the elite in South India, both because of their Brahmin status and their higher educational and financial credentials. But Kamala rarely talks about her Brahmin descent. In India caste is more important than just ethnicity and Brahmins are the highest caste.
What are you trying to say?
It will be a lot easier to just say, “middle class”.
Which could be redefined as upper and lower. Also, her parents were well educated.
All of it helped to make her the person she is today.
So what?..
It would be a lot easier to just judge her by who she is.
But America is not color blind, or capable to overcome prejudices or biases.
So here we go again.
I beg to differ. Skin color is determined by a tiny percentage of our genes. There are far more important genetic differences, such as those that determine facial bone structure, or prevalence of certain diseases. Ethiopians are a Semitic people-; that 's why their noses are aquiline, not flat. One of Sri Lanka's ethnic groups have coal black skin, darker than any African's, yet they have no genetic connection with Africans. Climate is a big factor: ethnic groups who live in tropical climes, or have ancestors who did, have darker skin because melanin protects against the sun.
If you start at equatorial Africa and head north, people's skin color lightens imperceptibly, reaching Mediterranean olive skin to north European pinkish white skin to Finnish skin, which can be literally white. So if skin color defines "race," there are thousands of races, and the term loses any meaning.

@Muslimcel India is in Asia continent. Period.
When dealing with people who are themselves from Africa, yes. When dealing with the descendants of African slaves in the Americas, not really. Their exact origins are rarely known and often mixed anyways.
To be honest it's much the same for European immigrants to America. The first generation or two are often specified by country, but past that it blurs into generic European American, or as we usually call it "white" or just "American".
The same isn't said of African Americans, because this country has historically been too racist to accept black people are really American and to a lesser extent still is so.
@@prayonkreutz2398 You're right. Idk anyone who isn't multiracial. Especially Americans.
Thank you for the detailed breakdown. Also, similar case applies to the native Taíno people in the Caribbean.

"Worng" half white and half black people identify as black because of black privilege.
yes Harris is mixed race not simply black. The contradictions in this video are hilarious. He stated that she is from a mixed family, stated indian is not a race and then concluded she is black and indian descent.
So your black (when mixed with white or whatever) to appeal to circumstances. They choose to identify with a race to be a "victim". Obama .. did the same. He portrayed himself as the "first black".. and now she is portraying herself as the "first black" I have more respect for a person with character & class and being black as they come, (than a self identifying black to be "the first" as their identity to be noticed) And Harris's ancestors WERE slave owners, they even had a town named after them. Im just sick of the race card used to whatever advantage that will make headlines or votes. It would be refreshing to have people get a job, because they earn it and have incredible character. Regardless what race.
You are most definitely white and clueless. So, you're saying if someone is mixed race, mixed with black. And they claim black, they are a victim? Well that's racist logic in itself. Claiming blackness makes you a victim? So, if Barak said he was white, how would that have gone over? LOL Obama and Kamala can't identify with the non-black parent because American society won't allow them. Obama can't go around saying he's white because he doesn't look it. Neither can Kamala go around saying she's Indian because she also doesn't look like an Indian woman. If either one of them did, they'd be put in their place immediately! Especially in their generation. They chose to identify with being black because that's what society sees and treats them as such.
And you think Trump was qualified when he became president?!!!! He's still not qualified. He plays victim, constantly whines and is a total loser!
No that is not true Obama never said he was black, the American culture did that to him.
She said she is half black and half indian, people just ignore the fact she she half indian and focused on the black part.
What you do not get mixed people get rejected, she did identify as black but they said she is not black enough.
Hey PG... clearly you're too slow to comprehend the video, so let me explain it to you in more graphic terms that you'll understand!
Madam VP Kamala Harris' ancestors weren't slave owners! Her ancestors were *_RAPED_* by slave owners...!!!
Hope that helped...!!! (SMH!!!)
Her ancestors have the name of a white founder of a town in Jamaica. That founder, though a slave owner, may have had nothing to do with the genetics of her father, because slaves take the name of their owner, whether or not they are sexually abused by that owner.
If you are of mixed race you are not identified as the race of the "least privileged group" you are identified as part of the minority group in a given context. My children are half European (Dutch) and half Indian (Gujarati). In their sports teams, where the majority were European, they were referred to as Indian, at their Gujarati language classes at the local Hindu Temple, where all other pupils were of full Gujarati Ancestry, they were referred to as White. In both cases this was not done in any negative way. This was just a way for them to be quickly identified and was, at worst, a subject of interest and curiosity on the part of the other children they were interacting with
Thank you for your wise words and outlook.
I totally agree. The designation of "race" if you have different ones represented by your parents, ends up being what you look most like, and what's socially acceptable at the time.
Peter Walters well explained, I agree.
The narrator said he was talking about the general attitude in the US. I get the feeling you don’t live in the US because it’s uncommon for someone who isn’t and/or doesn’t look full European to be called white. I have friends from South America who are considered white in their countries but not in the US.
Very true. People are also often just referred to as what they look too. I don't know why people identify as one or the other, and not both.

CLAIM TO AN HISTORICAL-HERITAGE,

DOES NOT even remotely APPLY to her
in ANY WAY, SHAPE, FORM OR MANNER.
Everyone knows that NEITHER ONE of her

ANY connection WHATSOEVER to the
specific-experience or group to which
Harris is now (suddenly, out-of-nowhere)
futilely-attempting to lay a spurious-claim
and that her 'Jamaican' dad is NOT 'Black'.
(( And ... this is all in spite of Harris's (very
anti-black and racist) attempt to resurrect
the long-dead (thanks to the 1967 ruling
by the U.S. Supreme Court in the 'Loving
vs. Virginia' case) 'racist One-Drop Rule'.
The 'racist One-Drop Rule' makes the false,
unscientific and extremely racist claim that
... "black blood is" nothing more than merely
"subhuman-filth" and that it is so very "filthy
and tainted" that ANY amount ... including a
mere-drop ... will "contaminate all non-black
lineage " .. and will also somehow eventually
transform anyone with ANY amount of it in
their lineage ... into becoming a "Black" person. ))
[[[ ^^^^ i.e. KAMELEON ... Race-Faker ... Harris
now FALSELY-claims
(suddenly, out of nowhere)
... that she is one of _"the descendants of the_
_Black-survivors of the slavery-system that_
_once existed on the continental United States"_
(which is the TRUE DEFINITION of
the unique
ETHNIC group called "African-American" ...
a definition that "applies to 'LESS-THAN
2-out-of-10' of the Black people that are
currently living on the continental U.S." --
seeing that the U.S. took-in LESS THAN
6% of the Black-slaves taken from Africa).
Harris's 'Jamaican' dad has LESS-THAN
25% Black racial - lineage ... and ... that
means that ... Harris has LESS than 12%
Black racial - lineage ... AND ... it should be
remembered that NEITHER Harris NOR her
'Jamaican' dad's family were EVER forced to
survive EITHER 'the Slavery system' OR 'the
Segregation system' once used in the U.S.

ADOS/Black Americans or American descendants of slavery have a history in the USA that goes like this.. 250 years of chattel slavery, followed by 100 years of Jim Crow laws and wealth stealing practices the have left this PARTICULAR ETHNIC group wealthless. This PARTICULAR group has also dealt with redlining, black codes, debt peonage and countless lynchings and massacres. This PARTICULAR ETHNIC group worked for 250 years for free as slaves unable to gain wealth, read or write. Then after that for another 100 years this PARTICULAR ETHNIC GROUP had laws written SPECIFICALLY to keep them from gaining wealth, accessing benefits like the GI Bill, the Homestead Act which provided millions of acres of free land to US citizens, proper schools, neighborhoods, jobs etc. which has led to the massive racial wealth gap.
Kamala Harris, while having the DNA of an African, she is not of this PARTICULAR ETHNIC GROUP. Her mother is a Brahmin Indian professional. She was a high earning woman from a top caste lineage. Brahmin Indians are basically the white people of India. Her father is part Jamaican from a slave trader lineage opposite that of ADOS and was also a high earning professional. Her life and family has not had the same set backs as those who are descendants of American Chattel slavery. It doesn't mean she is a bad person. It simply means she is not some miracle success story as she would be if she were ADOS. She is 1/4 "black" and born in America to affluent parents, but she is not ADOS/black American. Kamala has had anti ADOS policies her entire career. She is against reparations for ADOS. She has made a career locking up ADOS/Black Americans. She is not ADOS. She has always been considered Indian American but since ADOS/Black Americans are politically uneducated and vote mostly based on race, she is being advertised as Black American to garner the black vote. Calling her African American is misleading. She has a drop of African blood but as I mentioned there is much more to being African American/ADOS than blood
Appreciate this comment. Do you have any links or articles though on where she made a cerebral of “locking up” black Americans as you stated?
Blakely if you search RUclips you can find interviews of people she kept incarcerated past their time. One guy she actually blocked his attempt to submit his DNA to prove he was innocent.

Your heritage is where your father is from not mother.
Yeah but you have to understand her Jamaican father had ancestors that are descendants of European slave traders and slave owners. Meaning that her ancestors were enslaved on a Jamaican plantation in Montego Bay.

@@mariamart_0 yep. Besides she was born on the solid of America. Therefore, she is a born AMERICAN. The problem is MOST Americans do not understand the difference between👉Nationality,Ethnicity or RACE.
Nope. Jamaican blacks were slaves from Africa. So its fine.
It is most certainly true that African Americans are the foundational ethnic group, and Kamala Harris has Jamaican ancestry, through her paternal line and therefore could claim to be Jamaican American or Caribbean American, if she desired to.
It's interesting that Kamala seems to identify more with African American culture than she does the Caribbean cultures, particularly Jamaican culture. Her parents' divorce when she was a small child could explain this disconnection. In an interview, she stated that her mother learned everything she could about African American culture, so they would fit into American society.

You still haven’t told us where Kamala’s father heritage came from. You said he was born in Jamaica and studied in the United States.
“Born in 1776, Hamilton Brown (a White man) came from Tullyloob, County Down, Ireland to Jamaica in order to earn his fortune. He came with his uncle, Alexander Hawthorne who became an attorney and found the young Hamilton a job as an estate bookkeeper for a new friend in Jamaica. Within a few years, Hamilton Brown had made a name for himself; buying and selling slaves and property. He would mortgage the property and before long owned more than 6 properties, each with a slave population. He lived in Saint Ann parish on the eastern side of Jamaica and represented the parish for 22 years in the House of Assembly of Jamaica. He founded Hamilton Town, which was later renamed Browns Town. He was a sugar planter and cattle breeder. He brought over 300 people from Balleymoney, County Antrim, Ireland to Saint Anne in a brig that he owned, but most were little more than white slaves unless they had specific skills. He was often criticized for his treatment of his slaves and workers. When he died in 1843 it is guessed that he had more than 30 children himself by different slave women, a common thing for slave owners in Jamaica. Although he never married, he left part of his property to his son Hamilton Brown Jr, a mulatto whose mother was Kate Williams, a Negro Ebo slave who was brought to Jamaica before 1832 when slavery was abolished in Great Britain” source: Ancestors of Hamilton Brown Slave Owner by Diana Muir - Author. It was after slavery was abolished by Great Britain that he began bringing more poor Irish over to Jamaica.

@ I hate to burst your bubble, however, these people you speak of are enemies of the state and will be exposed. I'm blessed to think for myself.
@Taz Ward You do know that Africans were brought to Jamaica as slaves and were held in bondage there for nearly as long as in the US, right? Her black ancestors were not slaves in the US, but they did share the Atlantic slave trade ancestry with enslaved people in the US. It's just that the ship they were taken on stopped and sold them off a little bit sooner. They went through the atrocities of slavery in Jamaica instead of in the US.
I agree it's reasonable to limit US reparations for slavery and Jim Crow to descendants of people enslaved in the US, but that doesn't mean deciding that other people of African descent aren't Black or that Americans of African descent aren't African American.

hmm- so you totally ignored her father's line? it is most interesting. and i have it. it is not at all what you assume since Chrishy was born to Mary Mulvaney Brown and Hamilton Brown. they were married btw. not at all unusual in Jamaica. maybe you need to do more research? Christiana, who they called Chrishy, was not illegitimate at all it seems. she was the daughter of Hamilton's second wife. they married -- yeah you heard that right- married- after his first wife Isabella died. so no, she wasn't a product of rape. she was a product of marriage. since both of his grandmothers, including Miss Iris Fenigan Christie were black- most likely Creole- then it seems his great grandfather had chosen a black woman as a wife the second time around. i don't know if his first two sons were white, but both his daughters were black.
oh and another thing, Hamilton was Mary's second husband. she was married to a Brown before him, which is why her name is listed as Brown before she married him. i don't know what her maiden name was- it never showed up on anything I researched. but i am sure someone somewhere will find it.
Thanks. Much closer to what I recall coming across. I know many issue oriented people, especially from California, who had much disdain for her actions as Attorney General. It was around the time word was out she was selected early 2016 by the big Dem donors, as not to run as Hillary's VP, but rather to be the next in line. My friends and co-workers were quick to squawk about her claims with respect to race. I did look at some articles by her father, around the time he publicly said something negative about her public statements. I was merely casually interested at the time. It was an easy find then.
Sources for any of that?
It doesn't really make sense though. The timeline is too short. The slave owner Hamilton Brown was obviously from the early 1800s, before slavery was abolished in Jamaica. He apparently died in 1843. He can't really have been Miss Chrishy's father, since she died in the early 60s, according to Donald Harris. There need to be at least one more generation - quite possibly more.
According to Snopes, there was a second Hamilton Brown involved, who may be who you were looking at. They suggest that the Mary Melvina Brown who married that Hamilton Brown was the daughter of the slave owner Hamilton Brown. Still no direct link to Christiana though.
The slave rape would have been a generation or two before Christiana, since it would have needed to be in the slavery days, which ended in Jamaica in the 1830s.
Regardless of any of that and regardless of any documented ancestry, it's practically impossible to be Jamaican and black (or mixed) without having slaves in your ancestry - unless it's from known very recent African immigrants. The original African population was brought there as slaves and there was little voluntary immigration from Africa after that.
@TheDotaGuyN'LetsNotForgetCS GO Even granting that, which isn't entirely clear, that "free black woman" either had been a slave or was the descendant of slaves, since that's what Africans were brought to Jamaica for.
@TheDotaGuyN'LetsNotForgetCS GO Since she was free when she married a white man, her slavery heritage no longer counts?

An investigation into Kamala Harris’s ancestry raises significant questions about the accuracy of her claims. According to records presented, Harris’s paternal grandmother, Beryl, passed away in 1960, four years before Kamala was born. Despite this, Kamala included a photo in her 2019 book claiming to be with her grandmother, which appears misleading.
Furthermore, Kamala’s portrayal of her racial heritage as primarily black is questionable. Her father, Donald Harris, grew up in Jamaica, but his ancestry traces back to Irish slave owners who owned over 1,000 slaves on their estate in Jamaica, known as Brownstown. This suggests a complex heritage that includes both Irish and black ancestry, rather than purely African descent.
Additionally, inconsistencies in family records, such as missing marriage certificates and the inability to locate certain relatives, raise further doubts about the narrative presented. It is essential to critically examine these claims, especially when they shape public perception of a figure’s heritage and identity.
Sir, I am black and you can track my ancestry back to Scotland, in some parts. You can also find traces or Native American and Chinese. 😂😂😂 This is MOST BLACK PEOPLE. How are you JUST discovering this??

"How society chooses to define them" is a difficult point because in this context society means "the aggregate of individual behavior" rather than formal rules from e.g. regulation, law, etc. So I would argue what you actually mean is a sort of average of how individuals respond to individuals who have specific physical traits. On one hand it's a small distinction, but on the other hand it's a huge distinction because it's relatively simple to change laws democratically, and enforcing rules about private interactions between individuals is something that can't or shouldn't be the purview of the State.

Thank you for this video. I am a Biology teacher and have to explain this concept all the time. In Biological studies nobody talks about race. Even in purely genetic terms we as humans have far more in common with each other that our ethnicities might suggest. Those DNA testing companies mostly lie to you when they tell you that they can pinpoint your ethnicity or where you or your ancestors came from. Some groups that have very distinctive genetic anomalies that have perpetuated in close knit communities can be pinpointed, but that is not very common. It is rather silly that people get so hide bound about determining a persons ethnicity when really all human kind is just a continuum of similar genetic traits, the rest is just environment.

Could you say that Black and White could be their own ethnicities? In the sense that Black people in the United States have ethnic ancestry from West Africa and Europe. So this combination, combined with the unique culture found in the United States, could make the argument that Black is its own ethnicity. The same could be said for Whites too as Whites in the United States are pretty much just a mixture of different European ethnic groups.
You wouldn’t call an ethnic Frenchman White because chances are they would be 100% French and not a mixture of different European ethnic groups.
The problem there is that you're using language and location to define GENETICS! Ethnicity is a people living and breeding in one place for generations, but generally only IMPLIED that they're weren't other people there they mixed with or others who entered their community, or members who left and came back with children from another ethnic group! Too many variables and a geneticist would be hard pressed to recognize these on a test! Negroid, Caucazoid and a mix between the two is Mongoloid. Keep it simple and there will be less tribalism
@Preoximerias
It seems to me that you may be
confusing "Race" with "Ethnicity".
*The fact of the matter is that ...*
*(1) Kamala Harris is NOT a member of*
*the unique 'Ethnic' group known by*
*the term of "African-American"* (as
she is NOT _"a descendant of the_
_black-survivors of the system of_
_slavery on the continental U.S."_ ).
*(2) Kamala Harris is also NOT* a member
*of the generic 'Race' group known by*
EITHER *the term of "Black American"*
(which would be _"the black people now in)_
_the U.S. whose families arrived_ to the U.S.
_AFTER_ the _slavery_ system _was abolished"_ )
*OR even* the term of *'Black'* (which would be
_"a black person from any nation on earth"_ ).
[AND ... this, of course, means that ... despite the
media's purposeful-misleading of the national and
global public on the topic ... THE two TERMS of ...
"Black" ... and ... "African-American" ... ARE NOT
SYNONYMS ... AND .. the ARE REFERRING TO
TWO entirely DIFFERENT GROUPS OF PEOPLE.
As ... while the "African-Americans" are seen as
being 'Racially' Black people ... most of the Black
people in the world (including those in the U.S.) ...
are NOT of the 'Ethnicity' called "African-American".]
*Thus ... the truth of the matter is that ...*
*(A) Kamala Harris is NOT* and can NEVER be
a member
of the unique 'Ethnic' group known
by the term of *"African-American" ... due to*
issues of both *'historical-timing and geography'.*
*(B) Kamala Harris is also NOT* and can NEVER be
a member
of the generic 'Race' group known by
EITHER the terms of *'Black American' or* of
*'Black'* ... *despite her* efforts to take the
*RACIST action of REVIVING and INVOKING the*
long-dead (since the 1967 SCOTUS ruling in the 'Loving'
case) and very anti-black and *Racist 'One-Drop Rule' .*
*But ... with Harris' long-history of exploiting the black*
*people* in any way that she can / could _(ex. charging_
_them for non-crimes; holding them in prison beyond_
_their sentencing for cheap labor ... i.e. making them_
_into wage-'slaves' ... refusing to allow them to get set_
_free when evidence proved they were not the offender,_
_etc.)_ ... *for the advancement of her own* political and
professional *career ... it serves as no-surprise to see*
*that she is* more than *willing to* try to *revive and*
*invoke what some have called *the most oddly*
*Racist practice* that has *ever* existed ... which
is ... the practice of *The Racist 'One-Drop Rule'.*
((( Note: The Racist 'One-Drop Rule' was never an actual 'law'
but many 'laws' in various regions of the U.S. and the world
were based on the practice of it and on it's false-claim that
' Black-blood ' is _"a filthy-taint and worthless-contaminant".
_
*In 1967 the SCOTUS banned* the social and legal usage
of *the 'One-Drop Rule' ... due to it being based on*
pure *racism and* also *lacking in any scientific proof.
*
*Yet ... Kamala Harris ... arrived to the U.S. from Canada*
multiple decades ago ... *with both a willingness to* try
to *destroy countless minority-families* and lives ... *and*
... an equal-determination to try to *build an entire career*
*off of ... the resurrection, invocation and application of*
one of the most racist and shameless ... and also banned
since 1967 ... social practices ... ever recorded in the
history of the United States or world history ..
which is called *'The Racist One-Drop Rule'.*
*Shame ... shame ... shame .... on her.* )))

It's almost impossible to classify french people in a relative racial space, France was built by political will and power struggle over a vast land of VERY diverse ethnicities, Germanic, scandinavian, celtic, basque etc...and now since the sixties unfortunatly a lot of Africans with very different cultures, religion and historical backgrounds that is tearing this country, that was so hard to unify, apart, and there will be no political will to force integration by law and force like it happened in the past, this country is done for and will probably have fragmented in tens of different nations in less than 50 years

Imagine the mental gymnastics required for someone to recognise the subtle genetic differences between neighboring, marginal ethnic groups - separated by a hill and probably a few hundred years of history - yet who can wilfully deny the existence of any genetic difference between geographic groupings of said ethnicities - separated by oceans, massive deserts and the literal millenia of human history necessary to find a common ancestor - genetic differences so distinct and obvious that one can easily discern them visually - no DNA test even required.
That last part explains your flaw. Race in the modern day is shallow and unscientific. After all, you even laid out the fact that ethnicity is more nuanced and basically serves the same purpose as race. So why not just use that? The problem with race is that it is too fluid and broad to be a scientific categorization. Rather it serves as a social categorization; thus race is real but not scientific and is a social construct.
In addition, the meaning of races change over time as it has been used to include some Jews and Middle Eastern peoples when they would definitely be seen as a different race in Ancient Rome or Greece. Race also changes based on cultures as well. For example, up until pretty recently in human history (about a hundred years back) native "Han" Chinese still considered Manchus to be an "other" even though from a Western perspective they were practically the same. And that's the thing some countries don't even use race because it's so arbitrary to call yourself Asian in a country like Malaysia or White in a country like Germany.
@@LifeWithParole There is no scientific consensus regarding race.

Race is still a continuum, and not something that can be divided into discrete categories, since any line you draw is to some degree arbitrary
@@unfetteredparacosmian Wrong. Computers can easily distinguish races at a rate of 99%
It would be cool if you did the family tree of Bernie Sanders
I think there's an episode of Finding Your Roots on him if you want to scratch that itch until then.
That's not his real name. But I'd like to see his family tree.
The comments & the video doesn’t make sense.. First of all the mentioning of Black Americans history is irrelevant. Both of Kamala’s parents are not from the United States of America. So their ethnic makeup doesn’t match a Black Americans. Also, the all Blacks have white blood from slavery; is partly true. The slave owners would be hundreds of years back in the family tree. slavery was over more than 250 years ago. Jamaican slave owners 4 generations back, means thats her family and heritage. it's most likely from intentional marriage. Slavery in Black Americans blood line is hundreds of years back.. not a couple of generations.
I wish you would just define my racial identity so that I may adequately lable my victim card. This guy totally exposes his bias in his descriptions and tone compared to other videos I've seen from this site

@@MyFirstHandlelmao, not really, what he said is mostly correct.
Several “far right” outlets, really that was unnecessary, like as a conservative I didn’t find any problems with this video, except you’re obviously hardcore defending her for whatever reason, but I do think there is a hypocrisy with her choosing to switch between races a lot. But no it wasn’t far right outlets, it was conservative media, these weren’t neo-nazi and white supremacist sights, and I think that was a very ignorant thing to say in my opinion
She says she is both Indian and black. You don't have to choose shen your both so she can be saying I'm Indian and she's right, she can say I'm black and she's also right, she did say she's not African American, it's because she sees herself of Jamaican ancestry wich is an island in the Caribbean not Africa.
Kamala spent a good portion of her life in Canada, for any proud Canadians watching. Her mom did cancer research in Quebec, where Kamala and her sister then went to school.
@5:33min This video's laughable & disingenuous definition of RACE: "How the person chooses to define themselves and how society chooses to define them." Is like saying anyone can choose to be a dog. Ludicrous.
Can't hide Jamaican records bro, great granddaughter of a former slave owner
@Dirt Law502 How stultifyingly ignorant of history can you be to blame the descendants of raped slaves because a “former slave owner” was a paternal ancestor? Or perhaps you’re just a troll who refuses to acknowledge that literally OWNING another human being in the same way you might own livestock gives you absolute control over even the very breath in that person’s body, so it goes without saying you are also free to exploit them sexually in any way you see fit. “Benefited from slavery” you say? Seriously? Obviously, your “pure whiteness” has done nothing whatsoever towards endowing you with critical thinking skills. What’s sad is, you’re probably too stupid to feel embarrassed.
You should never punish a person because their grandfather was evil which they have no control or involvement and let alone was born during that era.
Vgudorf
They were married. This guy just made up the rape comment
You just described the majority of black people. Almost every Black person has a great great or greatest grandfather slave owner as an ancestor.
Who raped her black ancestor. How is this important to bring up, and why do people make her feel bad for it? I am latin american of mixed Spanish and Indigenous heritage. Some of my Spanish ancestors raped my Indigenous ancestors, us mixed people have to carry both histories and the complex sides of our families.
Can u make a video on how much Spanish is the Spanish Royal family. Like is their ancestry more Spanish or French or German
probably to a large part swiss, if they are still descendants of the habsburgs.

Jürg Nobs probably a lot more German and French because descendants of the German habsburgs and the French bourbons
@@OnThePath777 1. germany did not exist at the time. in fact, it didnt for quite a while 2. they ruled in austria mostly 3. they originate from the town of habsburg, which is in switzerland.

Can you do one of Obama's family tree
That would be really interesting
G link Obamas ancestry begins in Kenya, he comes from a Muslim ancestors. That is why he gave every Muslim refugee that came to America to them he gave health insurance. Free while u got to pay if u want health insurance. Also he invited the terrorist group called the brother hood of man a wing of Hamas to the white house for tea. He was funding the Palestians people with billions of dollars. But this money was given to Hamas to buy arms, n rocket launches to attack Israel.
Obama is related to every American president it’s all in the bloodline it has nothing to do with him being black, he just happened to be a good candidate since black was the new trend. American presidents are chosen by bloodline. They are all descendants of some European king. There is enough of information if you find the time and do some research
Obama married a man big Mike, that tells us Much.

But you can group ethnicity (or a major derivative of it), haplogroups diverge and splinter off from one another through mutations just like language trees. It is not unscientific to say that the R1A haplogroup shares more in common with R1B haplogroup than with the J1 haplogroup. And when graphed out obvious clusters show themselves easily.
yea your are right like am irish so i would more dna in common with someone from norway than someone from middle east or Africa,
And what do you do, if people of 2 haplogroups have children?
@@Silver_Knee It is actually pretty neat: boys inherit their father's haplogroup and girls inherit their mother's haplogroup. The only time new (or any) haplogroups are/have formed are when a very very very unprobable mutation happens
Haplogroups describe 1% of genetic ancestry at best - the ones from purely female and purely male lines, all the other ancestral lineages are not described by haplogroups. Also, the same individual may have absolutely different results for mtDNA haplogroup and for Y-DNA haplogroup, if their all-male and all-female ancestries come from different populations. One may well be a 100% Western European by Y-DNA and 100% Native American by mtDNA (because those bits of DNA don't mish-mash in crossingover, so they all give you 100% result from one source).
I believe there was a video with clearly black girl having a nasty response to a genetic company, which promised to tell her where her African ancestry comes from by studying only mtDNA, but her mtDNA turned out to be from British Isles. Because mtDNA literally contains only a tiny bit of your overall genetic ancestry. Plus, bold for them to assume that all black people have mtDNA lineages only from Africa
That seems kinda arbitrary. And I don't get how this would inform what race someone is.
If a line of 3 generations of mother-daughter define the haplogroup of the last daughter of the line, but all the fathers in the picture came from a different haplogroup, that daughter would also have inherited many of their traits. Like, with a bit of bad luck, she may have none of the genes in common with her great grandmother.
well which is she who she said she was in california an Indian or what she portrays now since she became a presidentual candidate selected by pelosi, obama etc that now she is black. which is she. JUST WONDERING?????
