"Kamala Devi Harris was born on October 20, 1964, in Oakland, California.
[3] Her mother,
Shyamala Gopalan, was a breast-cancer scientist who had emigrated from
Tamil Nadu,
India in 1960 to pursue a doctorate in
endocrinology at
UC Berkeley.
[11] Her father,
Donald J. Harris, is a
Stanford University emeritus professor of economics, who emigrated from
British Jamaica in 1961 for graduate study in economics at UC Berkeley. In a 2018 article written in
Jamaica Global, Donald Harris claimed to be a descendant of slave owner
Hamilton Brown. (...) Kamala Harris identifies simply as "American" " - Wikipedia.
In my book, she is not "black". Nor was Obama "black". Both are "
Mischlinge", I am not certain on the correct English word, some translations seem to refer to animal breeding exclusively, so I skip the attempt to translate into English. Black in my book are Africans, especially near the equatorial region. Technically Northern Africans in Marocco or Tunisia are Africans, too - but I would never describe them as "black people".
