The right will push hard the slavery ownership narrative

@B1967 I believe you and I don't think it's a good strategy. How could the right argue that not all cops are bad because of what happened in Minneapolis but we can say that Kamala's ancestry makes her bad even though she had nothing to do with it?

Also, isn't the other part of her Jamaican ancestry revolving around being slaves of said slave owner? Would we tell a child of rape that they are part of a lineage of rape?

I'm not defender of Kamala but I'm just sticking to my principles.

@BlackoutNJ While I think it is reasonable to point out the hypocrisy on the Left for giving her a pass on the issue that they won't give to others, I agree that we should not be hypocrites ourselves and use the same type of silly and unfair arguments they use. I appreciate your appeal for consistency here.

@KeithThroop Exactly. I think one of the main differences between the right and left is that the left will violate everything that they believe in for the win. The right should stick to what they believe in and stay consistent with the argument.

@BlackoutNJ The right have been hammered with the slavery and reparations and this will be their best chance to push back on the left
Good strategy or not it will be used

@KeithThroop @blackoutnj - I agree with you both. However, it looks like the Communist Party is trying to push KH off as being a "Black Female" VP candidate.
Her father is Jamaican - if I am not mistaken the Jamaicans are for the most part descendants of African Blacks who arrived in or on Jamaica during the active years of slave trading.
I guess we could just accept the fact that K Harris is at least "part Black" in as much as is Obama? Maybe?

@iThink For sure. My issue is the weird language, even within black circles, of measuring how black she is. It just plays farther into identity politics and I hate it. You can imagine how many times my blackness has been measured by other blacks and I don't like it as a determining factor. My blackness was challenged due to how I carry myself but hers is by ancestry.com lol

@BlackoutNJ "Identity Politics" is just another iteration of racial segregation. MLK would be appalled!

@iThink Right. I literally had a black woman once tell me that MLK was passive and didn't do enough. I was like what? lol

The very Fact that she screamed and yelled about 'reparations' being due all blacks in America for what the Americans did during slavery, makes this a very valid point. One she needs to own.

@iThink, her father is Irish-Jamacian.

@DeplorableToo yes I know - and Jamaican is descended from African Black

@DeplorableToo You know what....kind of a good point. How do you argue for reparations when your own lineage was slave owners?

This is not in defense of Kamala but more of a question. We know that many slaves were raped or used for reproduction with their masters. If we are to assume that these aren't willing relationships and those were the circumstance, technically you are the off spring of the slave owner and the slave. Is the slave responsible for the forced reproduction? Does someone like Kamala get oppression points because her lineage could be both?

@BlackoutNJ, she was not out of slave stock. Her Irish lineage owned slaves on her Father's side of the family. His mom's people were the Irish slave owners that relocated to Jamaica. From the Historical data he was pure evil. He whipped them until the bled and then whipped them more and after made them return to work. When slavery was abolished in Jamaica he moved his Irish (white) slaves to Jamaica to work the plantation. He got caught doing it and had to be forced to stop.

She didn't want that info out there, but her own father called her out on it. She is dishonest, and a hypocrite. We have enough of those in DC.

@DeplorableToo ahhhh got it. Thank you for the info.

@BlackoutNJ
It's not hard to find...
