Vice-president brushes off remarks by Donald Trump in which he said Harris āhappened to turn Blackā a number of years ago
Kamala Harris has shrugged off Donald TrumpāsĀ questioning of her racial identity, saying that it was āthe same old showā and that āAmerica deserves betterā, at a rally in Texas.
On Wednesday, in anĀ appearance at the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ), Trump antagonised senior Black journalists and questioned Harrisās race, saying, āShe was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage. I didnāt know she was Black until a number of years ago, when she happened to turn Black.ā
His interview, which was meant to last an hour,Ā according toĀ Axios, was cut short after 34 minutes.
But people mix up genetics and culture.
Drake might have one Black parent, but he didnāt grow up in that culture.
Obama had one Black parent, but growing up in Hawaii back then isnāt anything like being Black anywhere else in America. Thatās not my opinion, Obama spoke about how shocked he was coming to the mainland for college.
It makes no sense to talk about it genetically, because there are shockingly few differences between what we consider races in a genetic level.
The difference is the culture, not skin color, eye shape, or hair texture.
Itās just for the vast amount of human existence, the two went hand in hand. Thatās not always true these days.
Congrats, youāve discovered race is a social construct and doesnāt matter. If only the racists would come to the same conclusion we could stop talking about it.
You didnāt pick that up from the first comment?
