Kamela Harris, either your “blackness” is irrelevant, or you are a lying race hustler.

Intermarriage is erasing race. Calling someone just black or white or Asian or whatever becomes more inaccurate with each decade.
.
For example, today's WSJ has its reporters Joshua Jamerson and Tarini Parti making the flat statement the Kamela Harris "is black." She is also described as African-American.
.
In fact, by NATURE, she is about 45% African, 50% Tamil, and 5% Caucasian. By NURTURE, she was raised by a single-Tamil mom in Berkeley, CA and Montreal, Canada. Both of her parents are tenured professors are top universities (Stanford and McGill).
.
I have noted that African-American military brats (children of career military raised on various US military bases) seem to do disproportionately well in America compared to blacks “from the hood.” The same appears to be true of academia brats like Harris or IMB executive brats like Corey Booker.
.
If she and others are going to talk about her race, she needs to spit into a plastic tube and send it to 123 and Me and show us the resulting DNA breakdown. Does that sound Nazi-like? I agree. The unlike-Nazi version would be to stop mentioning race at all.
.
If we are NOT going to require spitting in a test tube, but we ARE going to continue to characterize by race, it must be accurate. That means reporters Jamerson and Parti need to say Harris is half Indian and half Caribbean slave.
.
How Harris "identifies" is bullshit. She would “identify” as Tamil if they were 13% of the electorate in the U.S. Indeed, her divorced father, the tenured Stanford professor, angrily accused her of that sort of race hustling when she bragged about smoking marijuana and said, “We’re Jamaican [what do you expect?]”
.
If she were running for Canadian Prime Minister, she would “identify” as Canadian. That use of race is race- or identity-group hustling. It has a racial basis. Vote for me not because of the content of my character, but because of the color of my skin, because you know we blacks (or Tamils or Canadians) are morally superior to the other non-black candidates and therefore more deserving of getting elected, and, wink wink, you know I’ll show favoritism toward my fellow racist homeys.
.
Harris is engaging in cynical race hustling and affinity fraud when she claims to be “black.”
.
She is also lying. She is Indian and black, or mostly Indian. She need not include her slave owner DNA because it is relatively small at 5%. But she ain’t black with no mention of the fact that only a minority of her DNA is that minority. It is in, legal matters, called an omission of material fact. Actually, her race is immaterial as Martin Luther King, Jr. taught us, but once you decide to be a race hustler, don’t omit material race facts.

Tigre Woods gave the only honest answer to the “are you black” question among famous “blacks” in memory. Oprah asked him if it bothered him to be called African-American on her TV show. He answered, “It does...I'm just who I am, whoever you see in front of you.”
.
Woods calls himself 'Cablinasian' - a self-invented term which reflects his African-American, Native-American, Thai, Chinese and Dutch ancestry. http://www.arogundade.com/what-race-and-nationality-is-tiger-woods-black-or-cablinasian-his-heritage-ethnicity-parents-mother-nationality.html.
.
Colin Powell responded to Woods’ Oprah answer by saying, “In America, which I love from the depths of my heart and soul, when you look like me, you’re black.” Colin Powell can kiss my ass. He is another dishonest race hustler who admitted in his biography that he benefited in his career from being “black.” I use quotation remarks because he is like Kamela Harris, Jamaican (not Tamil). If and when I need to know Powell’s race, I will get a court order to have him spit in a test tube, too. My guess is he is about 50-50 African and slave owner.
.
The plain fact is that Kamela Harris and Jamerson and Parti are using the KU KLUX KLAN method of race allocation: if you have "one drop of negro blood, you're negro." Shame on them and shame on the black voters who also buy into that KKK mindset and lean toward voting for her because she's "black.”
.
Even if she were 100% black by spit, it is IRRELEVANT. That was the whole idea behind the Civil Rights struggle in the 1960s—“content of their character”—but that got lost and now Dem presidential candidates and Wall Street Journal reporters are using KKK racist analysis to attract votes from certain races. The great victory of that era—the Civil Rights Act of 1964—has been “repealed” in part at the behest of blacks and liberals who prefer the KKK thought process IF IT BENEFITS THEM.
.
Oh, I thought there was a MORAL basis for the civil rights movement. It’s just another special interest group, huh?
