Yes. Its a blessing to have a mother. A right upbringing always brings successful children
She slept her way up the political hierarchy. Her sister had a daughter at 17, and she doesn't know who the father is. Her mother divorced from her hunsband when both her daugters were young. Kamala's father dislikes her and doesn't have a positive word to say about her.
Right upbringing is the last thing you should associate with Kamala.
Shyamala's story is incredibly inspiring. Even in today's world, with so much education and freedom, issues like color, gender, and voice still face significant resistance. I can only imagine how challenging it must have been during her time. Her dedication and determination to become a scientist, while raising daughters who defied stereotypes, is truly remarkable. Coming from India, where marriage is often seen as a lifelong commitment and women are typically blamed when it doesn't work out, her courage in all aspects of her life is deeply inspirational.
There is no mother like an Indian mother!! Kudos for raising a powerful woman!
How did she raise an African American child, shouldn't Kamala be considered more Indian than African American
Especially the ones who bully their daughters into using skin-lightening products because they want them to be 'fair'!
Indian mother is a cow 😊
A tribute to your fearless mother.
Kudos to shyamalas father gopalan, actual praise should go for him...he was ahead of his time and forward thinking to send his daughter alone to US and allowed her to pursue her studies and even allowed to choose her own partner that too in 1960s.....
I hope you will be the president & help the indians to get out from slums ❤
You mother definitely would be proud
Many, many thanks for this insightful reporting, I will share this with my Sri Lankan partner, keep their history coming!!!
Absolutely amazing
Waiting for your success ❤
All the best sister kamla for election. From India
democrats basically do not love India
Pop Fransisco said to choose the small Shaitan thats why i am supporting kamala..😅
4yearw back Kamala shared the same story about her mother, her Indian and Asian upbringing, her Indian roots and I believed that she's really gonna do justice with every human being be it American or for the rest of the world. I don't know if the VP has any power to go against the decisions of the Potus but i didn't find her do much for the people suffering in America and as the VP of the nation which is a super power she has some duty towards the rest of the world as well. What Biden did was just act like a war monger among countries in last 4 years that's the same reason I don't want any democrats to come to power immediately right now. And I hope Kamala keeps speaking about her heritage even after the elections and not use it only before elections to get the votes from asian and indian community there. This is not an educated indian behaviour With due respect to her mother, her family, and India.
I would definitely be happy to see an Indian American be the president of the United States (being an Indian) but at the same time I don't want the whole world to suffer because of the democratic politics of the US. I just want a mature human being to take that role be it anyone. That person has to think good about Americans and not destroy the peace of rest of the world like what Biden did
The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world
Cow got hands ?
Something tells me they don’t like their dad, and probably for good reasons
They actually do, but the acrimonuous divorce takes it toll on them. She went to school in my neighborhood of NDG in Westmount, Montreal.
❤
How does Kamala Harris mothers journey mitigate the troubles Americans face ?
Yes Shymala deserves a statue on Capitol. Wait a minute maybe the honor should be Mayas statues. Because Shymala brought up 2 children being single parent but Maya brought up 1 child as unwed mother. So who deserves statue ??
"My mother, your mother ....
My mother, your mother....
kamalarhari my frint you city my come my roung
No she said she is black
Her father is Black jamaican Men.
Цепи и крльца💍❤
Wow ! A scientist mother who participated in civil rights movement ... what an upbringing ! Trump's shoddy culture shows in his language and thoughts - no surprise of course.
When will indian get chance to elect an educated centrist women to power? 😢 I hope soon enough.
I hope for you too. Because the next century will be Indian.
A wish that every Porki has!! Hiding under a pseudonym are we???😂
There is a woman elected in a state level, i.e Mamta Banerjee 🤡. Please don't say that a woman should be elected. Instead, say that a person who can develop India should be elected . Because we can't be sure that if a woman is elected, whether she will be worthy of people of India or not.
@@User_123abc64 I said educated
@@Cray-wilder Even if a woman is educated, gender should never be a sole criteria to elect a person. I am also a woman . But, suppose in future any woman candidate stands for election . Then, also I will vote her on the basis of her structuring policies.
Using her late mother’s memory in politics is a distraction from addressing the real issues that America faces today. Instead of manipulating emotions, she should focus on the urgent need for free education, fixing the broken healthcare system, tackling gun violence, and ensuring that food chain or retail employees receive a fair salary without having to rely on customer tips. It's not the customers' responsibility to make up for corporate shortcomings. Meanwhile, inflation is at an all-time high, adding further strain on everyday Americans. These are the critical issues that demand attention. Stop using indian and black card and now u r using ur belated mother too. someone give her Oscar
Tell them to Trump first...😏
@@K.SaflinTrump has done more good for the American people than democrats could do for 12 plus years in power (Obama and Biden). Stop being blind to gender and race, they have not changed anything even when they are in power. Playing victim can be exhausting after a while.
You must be a Trump devotee - bless you !
Trump is a joke, funny whatever but Trump wasn't a global peace destroyer, a war monger among other countries like Biden...I don't know what would have happened to Americans if Biden would have been the Potus during the pandemic and yes I realised Harris uses her Indian roots Asian roots and even her black identity only before elections like what she did 4 years back to get those votes
So what shall we do??? IS IT MAKING ANY DIFFERENCE IN OUR LIVES? SO dear BBC get your stuffs to yourself
Another one of the GAZILLION why I am voting HARRIS/WALZ 2024!!!!
We indians ❤ Donal trump 🎉
Don't use 'we Indians'. You don't speak for the majority. Just say it is your personal opinion.
Not love trumph but his mandir and pray him too.
Trump is a joke lol
Indians love cow infact
Trump may be a joke but he wasn't a war monger and global peace destroyer like Biden. Biden did everything to destabilize peace in the world
She only feel about herself but what about palastian people, childern, mother who lost there life...
She is supporting genocide...
Fake feelings.
Israel didn’t start that war. There is suffering on both sides. What about the poor parents of the young Israeli hostages who were just killed?

So both her parents are academics? Smart genes.
Absolutely ! Upbringing matters ...
Helps to have both parents too
Her mother was there when Kamala was sworn in as California AG. Hard to believe she would pass away the following year.
Next president of the United States! ❤❤
Amen 🙏
My sincere thanks for sharing it.
Next president of the United States! ❤❤
She talks about her Indian mother and calls herself as Black to attract black voters. Just a chameleon
Her father is Black.
Her father a Jamaican
Me and you can relate Kamala
Only trump
She is Indian Hundu still she love the people of India
Who tell you 😂😂😂 she love india
She never be a president I don't like her because I like Reena roy
आयेगा तो ट्रम्प ही

Idk if it was her or her daddy that taught her how to be laughing Kamala.

I once knew a guy called Ramesh Gopalan, he had skinny legs, bad teeth, spoke English with a cartoon-like accent, and I wonder if he's somehow related to Kamala?
All those who have the same sir name are not necessarily related. Gopalan is such a common name in India. By the way, your language tell me you are not educated and coming from a low bred background. You sound comical and sound like a cartoon character. Nevertheless, you’ll experience how your envy consumes your own self.
😊
I think Kamala is way too self obsessed.
Get your head checked, you are projecting your issues on someone you could never compete with and will never be in the same sphere. You comment reveals so much about you and nothing about her, it was pulled out of your arse. Take a moment, breathe and think about things before putting it out in the world. In her very long and public career, what has she done or said that provoked you to say that? Share the video or the link to the article, I dare you. Your lack of critical thinking skills does you a great disservice. Also think thrice before speaking or writing.
You think she's more "self-obsessed" than Trump who continually refers to himself in the third person??
You don't sound right in the head!
@@SenorSol Did I mention Trump at any point? Hmmm nope. I think you're obsessed with trump and you see him everywhere.
@@user-id5fo5fv8r You didn't mention Trump but if you're going to claim that Kamala is "self-obsessed", without any proof or evidence to back up your loony assertion, then at least examine her opponent who has done nothing but be self-obsessed since the 1980s! I merely pointed out that inconvenient fact, but thanks for proving that you're not right in the head.
Keep on drinking the diet Mountain Dew!
i dont think her mom would be proud now, seeing her daughter go woke and supporting queer stuff.
Seeing that her mother and her grandfather were very progressive for their time, I think her mum would be very proud. Go vote trump and destroy your country why don’t you, or better yet get an education and learn something other than how to be deadbeat :)
Look up the definition of "woke" before using it. You will find that her mother was indeed very woke. Educate yourself!
