Her father’s family came from India to Jamaica. Her father is Indian. Listen to the video, the part where they’re all gathered and they say “ We’re proud to be Jamaican”. Where is the African American in her? 😮
@ Facts! indo Jamaican is what they are. If they were in Trinidad they’d be indo Trini. If they were in Guyana they’d be indo Guyanese. Either way, their ethnicity is Indian and their nationality is Jamaican if they were born in Jamaica. If they were born in their homeland they’d be ethnically, nationality, and culturally Indian.
She is Jamaican by nationality, her father is not black he is Indian and white. There are many Indians , whites, and Chinese In jamaica who were born in Jamaica but not black come on smh
Thank you for this comment. I ask again where does the black part come from? He was clearly Indian from the beginning. She knew her father was always Indian. She knew her father was never black. So what is with the two little black girl thing that she keeps talking about?
Candace Owen did a huge report on her family, very in depth. I think the media should watch it. What was her father’s politics? Which ancestors were Irish slavers?
That was a brilliant series by Candace. She done some real stellar work. Harris has some colour, just not black. It's convenient to use the black community when it suits them. This was still a very interesting watch, bug up the journalist.
And I am so glad Harris lost. I cannot and will not accept another questionable character and background running the most powerful country in the world

Jamaica should rock hard and rejoice on the day she gets inaugurated!
@@rhinochino they are brain washed by salad woman Kamala , she is absolutely clueless and needs celebrities on every rally who don’t even know the policy all they do is entertain people . We don’t need entertainment we need common sense to make America great again, be safe in the streets , stop raping innocent women /kids , illegal immigrants, robbery etc . Kamala is clueless she cannot even speak properly or answer a question without Trump’s name so disgraceful and she is running for our president in America, you got to be kidding.
We all know people vote based on just liking the person or favoritism or bias informarion, NOT what the candidate offers for the country. If she was competent, she would've made 1 positive change in the country in the last 3.5 years. She talks more about Donald Trump by spreading hate than about what she will do for the majority in this country. She is clueless and offers NOTHING for me to vote for her.

Being black America vs Jamaica are two different experiences. In Jamaica, its a predominantly black country, so your identity is more transparent, because you see people who look like you from all walks of life: the Prime Minister is black, nurses, doctors, most CEO's, teachers, lawyers are all black. Unlike America, you are a minority and I think its something a lot of black African Americans struggle with unlike black immigrants because they have not had the experience to grow in an environment where their race is the dominant class.
What about being black in Europe ? 🤔 we blacks in majority white countries where we face limitations and systematic racisme. Although the experience are different guess what !? We are All black 😂😂😂
@@EnronnSierra ‘because u see people who look like you from all walks of life’…so true…said thing Richard Pryor said of his first trip to the MOTHERLAND, Africa…as he said, from the pilot to the porter, they were black.
@@rasempress9724 Martin Luther King said the same thing when use to visit Jamaica. Thats why he vacationed there so often. He was just amazed to see black people in the positions of power associated with oppression in the US at the time.
She has experienced a huge cultural world of Jamaica and India. Educated parents guided her academic education. Can you think of any other person who is part of a diverse cultural background. I admire her and her devotion of service.
And she lived in Canada. I don't think she liked it much tho 😂, came running back to the states as soon as she graduated high school. But she also spent time in Zambia with her Indian grandfather
Most people today are lol,I've got west Indian blood,I've lived in africa,I was born in the uk,I've also got greek blood,I'm white,i was born in Wales,I've lived all over Europe too including east germany and west,I used live in serbia and Croatia working very hard,I also worked in Thailand, lived in Australia,been to Hong Kong, worked in Japan too,im way more qualified than her to be the president of the usa,or maybe the usa needsa president than the run the country properly and not a president that has been around the world a few times,they need wisdom not comedy

This is the video I was wanting to see, thank you! As a first generation American born whose parents are from Jamaica and Antigua, I am proud to elect Kamala Harris for president! 💙
Where is Kamala's father and why wasn't he interviewed? Jamaica make be her father's nationality because he was born there, but it still does not prove that he is black!
VP Kamala Harris is an American. Family ethnic history is often complex, quite common for many in the Caribbean and also in the US ... she's no different from others in that respect. There's no 'gotcha' here! 😊🇯🇲😊

Her book is one big lie. Her grandmother was white Irish not black. Her family also own slaves. They were very wealthy people. You are trying to make out she is something she is not.
The two male 'cousins' , look as though they have Indian blood as well as Jamaican. I was born in England and brought up with both Indians and Jamaicans.
@@jimmiebazz2586no she didn’t. There was ONE race she one where they said she was the first Asian (they didn’t say 1st black bc that isn’t applicable).
Big lie 😂😂😂😂 i am Jamaican and I can tell you if she did have any family there you would've seen the amount of people celebrating just for she being a candidate for the presidency
Candace Owens did a series about Kamala and her family which is more detailed. Kamala identified as Indian probably because she was closer to her mother than her father and didn't identify as black until she ran for president, its not how others identified Kamala it's how she identified herself and changed suddently ...understand? It is said her father isnt in touch with het and doesn't talk to her that's probably why he wasn't available for the interview,in case anyone watching is wondering. Candace Owens covered quite a bit of kamalas history and the picture of her sitting on the older ladies lap isn't her grandmother its the employee of the family. Her grandmother died before she was born. Why would she say it was her grandmother is something to ask Kamala but we can only guess it has something to do with protraying herself to be black. Maybe her father is upset about het dishonesty?
I am a Trinidadian and Kamala Harris is my sister,we don't see colour we see our Caribbean love for each other ,whether you are black ,brown,white ,yellow or kaleidoscope all ah we is one family.
Well, she did run as an Indian heritage when claiming that she would be the first attorney general I think of Asian or Indian descent. I don’t think she ever mentioned she was black so a lot of people thought she was Indian and not black. I think you could’ve talked about that, but you didn’t.
I never thought she was Indian yes she has an Indian name, but her facial attributes have black features her father is mixed, but at the end of the day, I am also mixed and also black and proud!

I honestly was feeling a sense of pride for this video, until they reached the point about color is not a thing for us as a people. Jamaica is a very colorist country, and well classist as well. We are very welcoming overall, but, we very colorist as a nation. Big up to the journalist just the same and all the beautiful people of our blessed Jamaica.
Her saying she is black is about the same as a rabbit 🐇 saying it's a elephant. She spend her whole life as Indian of India heritage. But when it came to politics, she all of a sudden because black. If she had said she was black or black Indian all her life, I believe America would accept it... But people who ID as one race or nationality their whole life and then engage in politics and all of a sudden ID as something else is seen as fake.
Great reporting!! I’m Jamaican and I feel so proud of this reporter and of course the remarkable people of Jamaica. Including our next President Kamala Harris!! It’s true that Jamaican don’t think of skin color first, it’s not that type of country. ❤🇯🇲🇯🇲🇺🇸🇺🇸❤❤
She evidently thought skin color first by claiming indian and not Jamaican so that's why Trump said what he said, stop with the playing dumb and bashing him instead of making her be accountable for her actions...
I have always said, that if Black Americans don't want her and say she is not Black, we will take her because she is Caribbean American. The first female Vice President of the US is Caribbean American. I am from the US Territory and I am a proud Jewish Caribbean American.
I’m sorry, but nowhere in this report does the reporter identify any of Kamala Harris’ ancestors as coming from Africa. You can identify as black, you can celebrate blackness, you can “act” black, you can even look “black, but it doesn’t mean you have DNA from the motherland, Africa. This report fails to address the specific question of Kamala’s genetic roots. No wonder there is doubt. I wish I could say this report clears up the controversy, but it doesn’t. Kamala can be a proud brown woman of beautifully diverse heritage, but claiming she is black because her father is Jamaican, is a stretch. I’d wager that she is about 25% Irish, and ~75% Indian. She grew up in Oakland and has Jamaican roots, so culturally she is “black”, though some black Americans might also take issue with that statement. Anyway, just my two cents since I’ve been curious about this controversy and have been trying to find hard evidence supporting her claim. Gotta say, I think Kamala has just been playing identity politics this whole time. 🤔
Facts!! Notice how they interviewed family friends, people in the market, in the street, in their previous school etc, but they didn't even get close to her supposed black grandmother house to find pictures or talk to people who knew her. Donald Harris is also in the title of the documentary but they don't ever get close to him.

Thank you for stating your Critical Analysis. I'm so amazed at all the "reaching" going on in this video and comments. Like folks dont know the Distinctions between Race, Ethnicity and Nationality ! I dont even consider her "culturally black" either....all "performativity" and co-optation of an identity for Political career purposes.
Very well done thank you for the great reporting. All non indigenous Americans come from somewhere… this is Kamala’s story… she has good roots and should be proud to have Jamaica 🇯🇲 in her heart. This white boy living in Florida proudly cast his vote for Mamala. You are making America and the world Smile Again.❤
Kamala' uncles interviewed are straight up Indian features...not black. The family looks Indian. Indians back then came to Jaimaca as indentured servants. I don't see black in the family...all have Indian features....what I see is my honest opinion.
I absolutely loved it, getting to know Vp Harris family and background. Both sides are so respectful of each other and their support and love. Strong roots❤
As a Jamaican girl born in America of African, Arab, and Celtic blood, thank you. I’m Black but also respect and honor all parts of my heritage. Never a question. Race functions differently in the Caribbean and we have to remember that. Big up Jamaica. Wi likkle but wi tallawah 🇯🇲
@tr0picknowledge...How can you be black .....You said you are Jamaican of African, Arab and Celtic (Irish) blood so how can one be black then ? No one is black so which color would you give your arab ( i assume Syrian/Lebanese part then ?) Al this black narrative is given by Europeans with the race colored based cast system from colonialism and imperialism. Jamaicans who are of African decent are brown in complexion no one is black. No one calles Asians yellow people today right ?
@@onlineonlineaccount2368 There is this little thing called melanin have you ever hear of it. It gives you your skin tone. Like it or not we are of different pigmentation.

@@HatstandEvents… Kamala Harris’ mum is from the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. There is a ton of information about Kamala and her mother … all you have to do is Google ‘Kamala Harris’. From your comment, it appears that you are a trump follower, so your derogatory comments already show your attitude, so why are you even bothering to comment on this video?
My brother looks just like her uncle. My mother is black Jamaican and my brother father is Indian. What should my brother identify as?? This race thing is getting out of order as we say in Jamaica! Just plain out of order!!
Now I know where she gets all that energy! Gosh I am always more and more impressed and excited. 🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵 🌊Please win Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. 🌊 My vote is in along with my families and I made sure it got counted.
What's professional? What's authentic about this video? It's misleading.....an interview with 3rd and or 4th cousins who have not seen her and her father in almost 50 years is not worth sh.t. What this reporter is saying is that SHE is from the same area as Donald Harris and SHE attended ST HILDAS High School. What has that got to do with Kamala? This is a WANA BE reporter.
Being Jamaican doesn't make you Black by default. My wife and me are American lack but our oldest daughter is born in Germany... shes not German. Stop playing these silly games.

just fyi, Scripps used to be available using an antenna in my city. now the channel has changed to comedy reruns. I understand if this was a business decision and I can stream easily, but it was nice to know you had been on broadcast tv. even if your viewership is low, you might still have important influence on those who still watch live tv.
Why is there such an effort to position Kamala Harris as ADOS when her family lineage is clearly Indian? I initially thought she might have some white ancestry, but from what we know, her roots are Indian and Jamaican. Yet, Kamala refers to herself as African American, implying a connection to the ADOS experience that isn’t accurate. You’re conflating skin color with lineage, and those are not the same. If you tried interviewing Kamala’s father or her aunts on her mother’s side, would they say she’s Black in the ADOS sense? This feels like an attempt to rewrite history, as if we’re living in 1984-where we’re told to ignore what we know to be true and accept the constructed narrative instead. Stop the gaslighting. Referencing her skin color alone and labeling her “Black” overlooks the unique construct and lived experience of Black Americans, particularly ADOS. Her background deserves respect, but it’s not the same as that of African American Descendants of Slavery.
What Mr Trump was saying is that she identified as Indian vs “I’m black” then as she runs for president then the public Indian proclamation was silenced and now black votes have been on the rise!
Hawaii may be a U.S. state, but culturally we are more like Jamaica. In Hawaii Asians are the largest ethnic group with about 38% of the population. Whites are only about 25%, and 24% identify as two or more ethnicities. Just a Jamaicans identify as Jamaicans, rather than by ethnic background, most of us who were born and/or raised here identfy as "local". It's not necessarily about skin color or ethnicity, instead it's about a shared spirit, respect, and a sort of pride. I'd heard of racist behavior happening on the mainland, but the first time I actually witnessed it there I was stunned.
Stop trying to twist the truth.. She's mixed between Indian and White her cousin or another relatives it's irrelevant because we don't know if one of their parents are black ....!! we talked about Kamala Harris and her parents/grandparents are not black .... Candace O.she is right 100% with the finding about Kamala
But where is her father ? He doesn’t seem to be saying anything or supporting her. Any father would be proud to show up for his daughter running for the highest office of the land😢… something’s wrong 😢

I worked with a girl from Jamaica, who told me that “ black “ wasn’t used to describe the people in Jamaica ! ( Hello, * Mary ! I still live in the same place. 😀😂 )
Thank you for producing and publishing this heartwarming and truly humanitarian video about the Kamala Harris Jamaican and Indian family roots. It brought tears of joy to my heart and eyes. It proves that love, unity, and ethnic diversity are the World .... the most endearing aspects of humanity in this world. I pray that Kamal Harris as the vice president and/or president of the United States of America will be the catalyst for reuniting humanity as an Earth species of Love and Oneness for the wellbeing of all living beings of our beautiful Earth.
She lost big time because she mocked GOD- our Lord and Saviour JESUS CHRIST. Everyone cannot forget that rally of her when she mocked and insulted those 2 college CHRISTian students in her Wisconsin rally. Kamala cannot mock GOD!
Ava-joye! Girl!!!! If EVER "this was a job for me" was a person. This was so elegantly and poignantly done. I deeply appreciate your connection to this story, which is unscored in authenticity. Thank you for this. Thank you for literally sharing the truth from the mouths of these precious people. Absolutely loved this piece.
Some Jamaican history. The Browning Class, also known as Afro-Europeans, are a group of people in Jamaica with a mix of Black and white ancestry: History The Browning Class are the post-colonial inheritors of status and privilege from the white upper class. In the 1871 census, 100,346 people were recorded as "Coloured", which is now known as the Browning Class. Demographics According to a 2011 census, 15.1% of Jamaica's population is Afro-European, or Browning Class. Wealth Despite being a minority group, the Browning Class, along with White Jamaicans and Chinese Jamaicans, control a disproportionate share of the country's wealth. Social power Brownness or light skin can be a source of social power and status Terminology In Jamaica, "white" is an inclusive category that includes people of Anglo-Saxon, Jewish, Syrian, and even some multiracial or Chinese backgrounds.

We don’t need entertainment we need common sense to make America great again, be safe in the streets , stop raping innocent women /kids , illegal immigrants, robbery etc . Kamala is clueless she cannot even speak properly or answer a question without Trump’s name so disgraceful and she is running for our president in America, you got to be kidding.
Thank you

We all know people vote based on just liking the person or favoritism or bias informarion, NOT what the candidate offers for the country. If she was competent, she would've made 1 positive change in the country in the last 3.5 years. She talks more about Donald Trump by spreading hate than about what she will do for the majority in this country. She is clueless and offers NOTHING for me to vote for her.

Being black America vs Jamaica are two different experiences. In Jamaica, its a predominantly black country, so your identity is more transparent, because you see people who look like you from all walks of life: the Prime Minister is black, nurses, doctors, most CEO's, teachers, lawyers are all black. Unlike America, you are a minority and I think its something a lot of black African Americans struggle with unlike black immigrants because they have not had the experience to grow in an environment where their race is the dominant class.
What about being black in Europe ? 🤔 we blacks in majority white countries where we face limitations and systematic racisme. Although the experience are different guess what !? We are All black 😂😂😂
Maybe go back to Jamaica then? *shrugs*
Very good observation!🇯🇲

She exposed them 😅 they look soo Indian and this is her dad family 😂
Very Indian not black. They hated rastafrians too.
Candace Owens did a series about Kamala and her family which is more detailed. Kamala identified as Indian probably because she was closer to her mother than her father and didn't identify as black until she ran for president, its not how others identified Kamala it's how she identified herself and changed suddently ...understand? It is said her father isnt in touch with het and doesn't talk to her that's probably why he wasn't available for the interview,in case anyone watching is wondering. Candace Owens covered quite a bit of kamalas history and the picture of her sitting on the older ladies lap isn't her grandmother its the employee of the family. Her grandmother died before she was born. Why would she say it was her grandmother is something to ask Kamala but we can only guess it has something to do with protraying herself to be black. Maybe her father is upset about het dishonesty?

We are very welcoming overall, but, we very colorist as a nation. Big up to the journalist just the same and all the beautiful people of our blessed Jamaica.
This was excellent. I would love more videos like this.
Her saying she is black is about the same as a rabbit 🐇 saying it's a elephant.
She spend her whole life as Indian of India heritage.
But when it came to politics, she all of a sudden because black.
If she had said she was black or black Indian all her life, I believe America would accept it...
But people who ID as one race or nationality their whole life and then engage in politics and all of a sudden ID as something else is seen as fake.

I’m sorry, but nowhere in this report does the reporter identify any of Kamala Harris’ ancestors as coming from Africa. You can identify as black, you can celebrate blackness, you can “act” black, you can even look “black, but it doesn’t mean you have DNA from the motherland, Africa. This report fails to address the specific question of Kamala’s genetic roots. No wonder there is doubt. I wish I could say this report clears up the controversy, but it doesn’t. Kamala can be a proud brown woman of beautifully diverse heritage, but claiming she is black because her father is Jamaican, is a stretch. I’d wager that she is about 25% Irish, and ~75% Indian. She grew up in Oakland and has Jamaican roots, so culturally she is “black”, though some black Americans might also take issue with that statement. Anyway, just my two cents since I’ve been curious about this controversy and have been trying to find hard evidence supporting her claim. Gotta say, I think Kamala has just been playing identity politics this whole time. 🤔
Facts!! Notice how they interviewed family friends, people in the market, in the street, in their previous school etc, but they didn't even get close to her supposed black grandmother house to find pictures or talk to people who knew her. Donald Harris is also in the title of the documentary but they don't ever get close to him.
Thank you for stating your Critical Analysis. I'm so amazed at all the "reaching" going on in this video and comments. Like folks dont know the Distinctions between Race, Ethnicity and Nationality !

Why is there such an effort to position Kamala Harris as ADOS when her family lineage is clearly Indian? I initially thought she might have some white ancestry, but from what we know, her roots are Indian and Jamaican. Yet, Kamala refers to herself as African American, implying a connection to the ADOS experience that isn’t accurate.
You’re conflating skin color with lineage, and those are not the same. If you tried interviewing Kamala’s father or her aunts on her mother’s side, would they say she’s Black in the ADOS sense? This feels like an attempt to rewrite history, as if we’re living in 1984-where we’re told to ignore what we know to be true and accept the constructed narrative instead.
Stop the gaslighting. Referencing her skin color alone and labeling her “Black” overlooks the unique construct and lived experience of Black Americans, particularly ADOS. Her background deserves respect, but it’s not the same as that of African American Descendants of Slavery.
Her paternal family experienced slavery. Slavery in Jamaica or in America wasn't different

Hawaii may be a U.S. state, but culturally we are more like Jamaica. In Hawaii Asians are the largest ethnic group with about 38% of the population. Whites are only about 25%, and 24% identify as two or more ethnicities. Just a Jamaicans identify as Jamaicans, rather than by ethnic background, most of us who were born and/or raised here identfy as "local". It's not necessarily about skin color or ethnicity, instead it's about a shared spirit, respect, and a sort of pride. I'd heard of racist behavior happening on the mainland, but the first time I actually witnessed it there I was stunned.

Some Jamaican history.
The Browning Class, also known as Afro-Europeans, are a group of people in Jamaica with a mix of Black and white ancestry:
History
The Browning Class are the post-colonial inheritors of status and privilege from the white upper class. In the 1871 census, 100,346 people were recorded as "Coloured", which is now known as the Browning Class.
Demographics
According to a 2011 census, 15.1% of Jamaica's population is Afro-European, or Browning Class.
Wealth
