Her parents were civil rights activists

Kamala Harris’ father is Jamaican and her mother is Indian. Her mother. Shyamala Gopalan, emigrated from India in 1960 to attend the University of California, Berkeley, and pursue a doctorate in endocrinology.

It’s important to note that both of her parents were involved in the Civil Rights Movement.

Harris proudly shared on her social media accounts that her parents are why she chose to take to the streets to fight for justice. Her parents laid the path for her and she became the second Black woman ever elected to the United States Senate. That is when Harris began to write history.

Even though the fight for justice continues, Kamala Harris strongly believes change is possible.

When she was just 7 years old, her parents decided to divorce. Harris wrote in her book, “The Truths We Hold” that they didn’t have serious reasons to fight about and never fought about money. The parents took different paths but her father remained a part of their lives. Harris and her sister lived with their mother who shaped them into the women they both became.

  1. So this article was place just to sell her book. Even Nancy Pelosi did not like Harris when Harris was California AG for letting a police killer from being place on death row. One of many settlements to keep her numbers on the win side.

  2. I selected this article because I really wanted to know more about Kamala, but this article told me nothing. On TV, I watch and listen to her speak, but I learn nothing. I watched her interview with
    BB, and only learned that she hates Trump. I don’t dislike or like her, but, at this point, I can not
    give her my vote.

  3. What political, one sided piece of published trash. It omits plagerism, keeping prisoners beyond their release date, mischievious behavior, life of privlidge, etc., etc. Not an impressive piece nor may it be considered journalism.

  4. Her book is a fraud, so is her life. She posted pictures of her with her “grandma” Beryl but it is not her grandma Beryl. It was a picture of their help in Jamaica. Her grandma Beryl is Irish and very fair. She stole black people’s identities to get the black votes. SHE IS NOT BLACK!!! DON’T BE FOOLED!!!

  5. Her “bestselling” book contains pictures of “relatives” that aren’t her relatives, she has white family that she doesn’t even mention in her book, and really puts on a black face to win those votes so you should do you due diligence and fact check her book before you go recommending it to people to learn more about her “family”

  6. I don’t want Kamala, she isn’t smart and our country will be in a big hurt. She doesn’t know what end is up.

  7. Dear Sirs: In my opinion, if Kamala (Camel Toe) is some how elected, our judicial system in this country, illegals with records will be living in our neighborhoods, etc., etc.

    PS We need Donald T. Trump back in office to help get back on track with God’s help!!!
    God bless in His name,

  8. She is a fraud, not even of African decent as she claims!

    She is Eastern Indian, completely different!

    She is wanting to take this country in a direction no body wants, communism!

    She has BEEN THE VICE PRESIDENT THE PAST 4 YEARS AND HAS DONE NOTHING OF ANY GOOD!

    BUT NOW ALL THE SUDDEN IF SHE IS ELECTED SHE WILL DO GREAT THINGS❓

    WHY HASNT SHE GOTTEN STARTED ALREADY‼️‼️‼️

    She is a fraud, that’s why and even with all this media swaying going for her if she tries stealing this election which is to be expected

    They already tried to assassinate Donald Trump a couple times

    They can’t produce a worthy candidate so it’s a matter of winning by any means what so ever!

    There’s a total absence of integrity among the Democratic Party obviously when people like Kennedy are bailing out and endorsing Trump, something is very wrong!

    Biden needs to do time in prison!

  9. You did not go back to the relatives who lived Jamaica. My understanding was that they owned Slaves many years ago. Why did you not go back to the early relatives and show whether they owned slaves and in that way with her desire to give Reparations, she could begin with her own family to pay reparations. We need to know, did her family own slaves?

  10. You forgot that her father was a Marxist. He was a pollical science professor in a university and he extolled Marxists’ theory in his classes. Harris was well trained by her father.

  11. Nice gloss over with a big load of bullshit, absent Willie Brown, absent hubby’s assaulting women, absent everything that is negative and pertinent to her advancement. And nice foreign interference from Romania, nothing like a little illegal content!

  12. She grew up in Montreal, Canada, not in CA. She was from a well-to-do family, not middle class. Her father, despite living within walking distance of her, shuns her, & chastised her for degrading Jamaicans as lazy potheads after she quipped abt her pot use on a podcast. Joetato hates her & wanted to choose Amy Klobuchar, but Powers that Really Run His Party chose the one who dropped outta the race 1st & called him a racist. Jill Biden loathes her. Wanted to know: “why are we stuck with her?” Her big tough on crime record? Eight prosecutions for lower level drug deals! And she supported locking ppl up for pot while she was tokin’ away!
    What a fluff piece and misrepresentation!

  13. Is it true that her ancestors used to be slave traders? If so, why doesn’t anyone talk about that!

  14. Hopefully the USA will never have to deal with this incompetent person again. She is unable to deliver a coherent speech, and has no clue how to govern.

  15. she lied about everything, her intelligent level is low,
    and how come no one every bragged about what class rank she was in college
    her law degree,
    she cannot carry a conversation or debate, talks in silly rhymes, looks down on people,
    and what about the 20million she stole from her campaign, never made it out of the gate in 2016 president run and lost big time in 2024,
    and she is NOT BLACK,
    why would I waste money on a book of lies, fantasy, and want to be

  16. Why are you posting this so late? Harris was defeated and by a considerable margin.
    Don’t you have anything relevant to share?

  17. Kamella is the perfect example and a true hero for Aferican Amerocan women. I am a Jamaican American educated woman. I love the culture I was raised in and I did support her in her quest for the presidency. She is a great example for all women in this cuntry period. I watched her campain and was very happy to support her.

  18. Are you kidding? What a whitewash of Kamala and her Communist behavior. You can spin it any way you wish but she is not close to being competent or ethical and has no qualms stifling Constitutional freedoms as well as celebrating the murder of the unborn. She is the antithesis of caring about her country and its citizens. Having a partially black father and a Caucasian mother from India does not make her black. And yes, Asiatic Indians are Caucasians. Ever her the word Assyrians or see the Nazi symbol? They originate in present day India.
