She was also shown standing next to her grandma when she was in her late 20s. Meanwhile her grandma passed away before Kamala was even born.

Being Black is not determined by CNN, MSNBC nor FOX nor the View.

Millions of black women in America that could be President, but they have to create one.

There's a photo of a 20+yo Kamala with her black grandma, even though her grandma died 4 years before Kamala was born. In a lost TV interview, Kamala's dad said he was half Brahman (Indian) and half Irish.

Someone tell me why miss Kamala put a photo of her and her “grandma beryl” in her book when beryl died 4 years before Kamala was born 😭😭😭

She literally said she was Indian the first Indian congresswoman!

[rhondamyers]

Yes, Harris ‘a father identified as Caucasian and Hindu. Ask the Judge Brown. Watch the Judge’s interview. He talked to kanakas dad himself.

Whats up with Kamala’s grandmother in her book? She died in 1960? How was she in her book standing near her…

[tonywhite]

Kamala is not black period, Janet said what she said period. Stay mad 😢

[LC-vwkv]

So Janet Jackson dont have rhe right to say what she heard? The media is soooo full of it.

[Darcsied]

😂 This media chaos about Janet proves that Kamala needs to be seen as black to win an election. Nothing to do with her policies on black people, optics is their only concern.

Candice Owen’s show has done all the detective work and Harris is Not Black. Why isn’t Father Harris anywhere in sight.??

[Mulugheta]

As a full blooded black man she’s not black

[patrickcollins]

Now what you got to say? Candace Owens proved it, Kamala is not black…

[bryanbluez]

she was indian and chose that side. never once did she say she was black. not untill she needed the black vote. we are not blind

[frankw]

It's OKAY to be Indian. Be a proud Indian. Stop grifting for votes from other races and claim stuff you aint.

Her ancestors were Irish slave owners who migrated to Jamaica. This is her Jamaican ancestry she’s always talking about. She tries to black-fish just like when she posted that picture in her book captioning herself and her “grandmother, Beryl” as a teen, when in reality a quick google search can debunk this by proving grandmother Beryl died in 1960 4 years before Kamala was born. She’s hiding her Irish ancestry on purpose.
