I can never understand why ignoring race is considered a bad thing when that's the only way to solve the problem. But I'm English and we think about these things differently to Americans.
Many slave owners raped their slaves and had mixed offspring who were also enslaved. Being a descendant does not mean a welcomed part of the family.
But they also a case when slave owner marry his slave but not free the slave because it more save for his family to stay as a slave in era when human especially African still part as human commodities and properties. By free the family that slave owner have, there are possibilities for his family to be enslave by others.
@@ernisupriani9270 Cases where they married were few and far between I suspect. That was illegal in many places and times.
@@jeffmacdonald9863 there maybe a few but there are a cases like that. I never said there are many case like that, i said there are a case like that. When we talk about slavery to America we often think about the Atlantic Slave Network but that Network is not the only network since there also Pacific Slave Network when people from Pacific and the Indies (India, Indochina, Indonesia) brought to work in plantation in America continent like the African. And there also Indian Ocean slave network like when people from India or Indonesia brought by the colonizer to be sold as slave in the European Africa colony (Cape Malay in Cape town South Africa is the example). And there are a case of the Indonesian slave married with they slave master in era of Dutch colonial rule and many of the descendant today living in Netherlands
That wasn't the point of those pointing it out trying to take her down. Their point was, was that she has called for reparations and such from white people, some of whom are descended from slave owners., when she is a descendant of them herself.
Sweet home Alabama
Lmao people pretending slavery didnt existed in jamaica
@Melisa Sprague Yep Libtards are too stupid to understand that slavery and prejudice happened all over the world and white people had nothing to do with that. It goes against their narrative. They need to pick up a world history book.
Forever Falcon except there were black slave owners in America that had black and white slaves and indentured servants. Also, black slaves were sold to white Europeans by blacks; their own people.
Kimmminem West Both US and the Caribbean were apart of the trans Atlantic slave trade. They traded slaves back and forth between the Americas
@@foreverfalcon8117 almost all slavery historically was based on taking them from foreign lands e.g. spartans/helots, arabs/africans, scandanavians/anglos. Generally the only time it isn't like that is when tribes are too primative to travel to obtain slaves and just raid the nearest village e.g. germanic tribes, african tribes. Nothing to do with how evil you think white people are.
Slavery existed in every civilization before history began to be recorded. Be proud that America was one of the first countries to abolish it. There are some countries in Africa who hadn't abolished it until the 90s!
Also those African slaves that ended up in America were a lot luckier than those owned by Islamic slavers. They castrated all male slaves and made females their concubines. That is why you don't find a large African former slave population in Islamic countries.
i'm decended from fairly recent immigrants, i'm of nigerian paternity and ghanaian maternity with some taureg ancestry. i agree...knowing exactly where your family originally came from makes a huge difference in your sense of self. 🇳🇬 🇬🇭
Americo-Diasporans (Blacks) have been here for eleven generations. Like most other white Americans. Our "sense of self" is KNOWING that we're from America and that's just fine.
@@CarlaD.-rl5ry
so... you're never wondered exactly where on the african continent your family came?! 🤔
Nope not at all! No more than "British-Americans" who've been here just as long do not honor the Queen nor wonder where in England their family is from. We are not the 1st, only, or last new ethnic group to be created out of pop. dispersion, war, changes in national borders, etc. and over time those connections are lost anyway. Who knows, in 1.000 years Africa could belong to China and the entire demographic gone from Black to yellow! It's happened before. See: America.@@sulaimaanahmad
@@sulaimaanahmad Hey, how hard is it to make a genealogy tree of African descendants? Is that not hard due to the lack of written sources? I always wonder this
@@bjuny6481
it depends, some people of african decent have an easier time at this than others, my course is a lot smoother than others, other people will have more difficulty. it depends. 🤔
If anyone has two parents who have both earned a Ph. D from University of California, Berkeley, that person definitely has an upper-middle to upper class background. Thus, when looking at Kamala Harris' background, it's also important to take into consideration class as well as race differences that the Democratic Party has historically emphasized. Accordingly, Ms. Harris may not have "white privilege", but she certainly had the upper-middle to upper-class privilege.
Yep class is the real divider. Race is just low hanging fruit
So much privilege that she was able to keep numerous black men incarcerated on misdemeanor drug charges quite unfairly.
A upper class black person will be exposed to more racism b/c it puts them in direct contact with racist whites. A white co worker nearly lost his mind when he learned I made more money than him. A white neighbor went to prison after he tried to run me down with his car when I was 5, playing with my cousin on my family's property.
My brother holds an MBA and had to sell his house last year after white neighbors started following him on his morning jog demanding him to prove he lived in the neighborhood.
My sister is a famous TV Reporter who has to do her job with armed bodyguards after she was harassed by a white nationalist holding a rifle while calling her the NWORD.
Class doesn't protect you from racism, it causes the opposite.

It saddens me when generalization of races are just freely spoken and accepted in certain parts. I'm from South Africa and there are eleven official languages and even more ethnic groups just in that country alone. This topic is so complicated yet many have no idea. This video is such a good lesson for many of us.
Race isn't even scientifically applicable.
Karen, Don't school us. We aren't impressed by race or degrees. Don't be sad either. This is politics. It's blood and gore. Kamala is an expert back stabber. She enslaved black males in California prisons to work as cheap labor for the state. She's purely about herself.
Sir I’m a young black girl and was wondering if you could please explain what the things you wrote mean please?
Race and ethnicity versus lineage? Claiming someone else's lineage to further ones ambition is a problem.
Thank you!
👏👏👏👏👏
Esau did that to us
She's American with immigrant parents from two other countries
She is another NWO product like Obama and his entire family. She was raised in Canada and and both her parents are not natural citizen which makes her a anchor baby and not suppose to be able to hold presidency. The fact that her lineage contains slave owners and she comes up against white people whom have never owned any slaves shows she is a hypocrite.

Africa has thousands of ethnic groups and that includes over 250 in Nigeria
therefore, the world has thousands of ethnic groups
Raymond Nolan Scott They were also colonized by the British French and Portuguese
Cheryl Dias don’t forget the German
Raymond Nolan Scott African Slaves were brought to the Middle East by the Arab conquerors. Then when the Arabs started the trade with India and conquered Northern India “the Mughal dynasty “ by Tipu Sultan and others who invaded deeper into S India. Many intermarried local Indians and in the case of Pakistan the Balochi and Makranis who occupied were Africans who settled there. They too married locals. The following generations were now part of the 2 countries and are not identified on ethnic origins. They self identify as either Pakistani or Indian depending upon their place of residence. Power play divides people into groups but humans world over that they all are Homo sapiens. Only in America!
True the facts are they are over 2800 ethnic groups in Africa. And something like 2k plus languages native to Africa.
It funny when we come to some other place on the globe, we all forget this and it's been striped from us. We are one the biggest diaspora ( by race ) , but we have lost our roots & knowledge of our culture.
@pepe0801 thanks, I corrected that but way over 2000 ethnic groups and if you count the sub-groups probably even more .

This comment section really proves that race is a social construct. Apparently it doesn't matter how she sees and identifies herself, everyone made their own decision in which box she should belong.

@Blank Mane exactly. I’m Indian and I can see she’s mainly Indian just by her appearance. I hate it when people aren’t proud/transparent about their heritage. Xx
If India is a continent like Africa, would it too make more sense to call ppl from Africa not African & instead by the country they came from?
Very Good Point, although after a couple hundred years... We're all mutts now!!
India is not a continent, India is part of Asia continent.
@Muslimcel India is in Asia continent. Period.
When dealing with people who are themselves from Africa, yes. When dealing with the descendants of African slaves in the Americas, not really. Their exact origins are rarely known and often mixed anyways.
To be honest it's much the same for European immigrants to America. The first generation or two are often specified by country, but past that it blurs into generic European American, or as we usually call it "white" or just "American".
The same isn't said of African Americans, because this country has historically been too racist to accept black people are really American and to a lesser extent still is so.
@@prayonkreutz2398 You're right. Idk anyone who isn't multiracial. Especially Americans.
Thank you for the detailed breakdown. Also, similar case applies to the native Taíno people in the Caribbean. According to a recent study, there's zero paternal lineage, i.e. Taíno males were killed and the women raped by the explorers, so modern Taíno people like in Puerto Rico only have maternal lineage.

@aUsefulcharts You did an EXCELLENT job at breaking down "race" and "ethnicity". I've been trying to get people to look up the words race, and ethnicity for a few months now so that they can see pretty much, exactly what you described.
Thank you so much.😊👍
Yeah, clearly race and ethnicity aren’t the same thing. For example, you can be of the white race but be of Slavic or Anglo-Saxon ethnicity
Her ancestors is belong from different country but after all she got Indian name 'Kamla'. Her sister also 'Maya' and Her niece Meena. All are Indian name.
...yes one side of her ancestors r african decsent and her mother's parents that is her maternal grandparents r Indian citizens who live/d in Tamil nadu..
@@universeofopulence yeah!Jamacian-Indian-American..

As a mixed race/ethnicity person, you hit the nail on the head!
"Worng" half white and half black people identify as black because of black privilege.

@@skylarblue Americans use this word a whole lot, POC for example refers to non white people. I'm not sorry if you felt excluded from my statement, you attacked something that is not worth attacking.
In other words, whatever the race or ethnicity, never trust a lawyer.

Isn't she a prosecutor? kind of different from a lawyer.
@@Xunxunism a prosecuter is a lawyer
@@Xunxunism Hmm ? A prosecutor is simply a lawyer who had to run in an election or can be appointed by a mayor . Read up on the Mayor Willie Brown. That is good reading.
@jattatheart111 What's wrong with them?
I’m from Puerto Rico but as a Puerto Rican we usually say I am the combination of three races (Taino Indian, Spaniard and African). In essence that is true but not entirely. It turns out that after taking a DNA test, my racial pedigree is much more complex.
According to DNA test I have an ancestry from:
Portugal 🇵🇹 24%
Spain 🇪🇸 23%
Indigenous Boriken/Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
(Taíno Indian) 16%
Cameron, Congo, Wester African, etc. 12%
European Jewish 7%
Nigeria 5%
Norther African 5%
Senegal 4%
Mali 2%
Aegean Islands 1%
France 1%
In summary and using an expression that we usually use in Borinquen (Puerto Rico): "he/she who does not have 'dinga' has 'mandinga'". Basically what it means is "he/she who does not have this has that" (geographically speaking it would be: "he/she who does not have from one place has it from that other place").
Have a wonderful day and GBU !
White slave owners / over lords impregnated Indian black women that's why there is always white male some where in most blacks brown people of South America
Yes, always more complex. Yours is one of the most interesting I've seen. Best to have many family members test their DNA. One of the DNA sites used to let you know about some nationality (I think that is a good word) you most likely have because so many close DNA matches have that nationality registering. DNA is capricious. My full sister and I have different DNA profiles. She has 10% French, and I have 2%. Let's pretend we both have 4%. That doesn't mean we have the same 4%. Ancestry can separate DNA by maternal and paternal lines now. I have 2 more nationalities registering on mother's side than she does. I have more Jewish than she does. She has more eastern European than I do. And so forth. There is Native American in the mixes. But a family member not showing Native in their DNA test has several skeletal characteristics specific to Native and they LOOK Native and are always taken as such. What we need is lots more sampling of every population, and more people getting their DNA tested and shared. I don't believe that any of this really makes a difference in one's life--culture does--but it is just so much fun!
Even as giving a replying comment towards other said bloggers; thus, (based on some already giving historical references & possible Birth Certificate info) although Kamala Harris was genetically produced by a Black (possibly mixed-race) Jamaican male & Indian female, there was no real indication of her being 'labeled', recognized as being Black or (of African descent) African American.
Is it not true that, even from birth, her racial - genetic line is only listed as: Caucasian, Indian and Jamaican? For someone that as said: "My parents met and continually collaborated at African American civil rights meetings, as well as ultimately often taking me (as an infant and young female child) to those same meetings with them". Thus, my questioning comment is: ? What ultimately happened to Kamala Harris and her final relationship with Black - Richly Melanated males? In the end, is it not possible that this same Black father was not very active within her overall life or final up-bringing? Is this also a case of another Black female seeking vengeance on what her Black father did (or maybe better said didn't do) towards a Black daughter????
Great video. She shouldn't be referred to as an african american. Shes jamacan american or tamil/Indian american. African American should be reserved as an ethnic category for those whose ancestors were enslaved in this country.
Your heritage is where your father is from not mother.
I'd love it if you covered the family history of Shinzo Abe, Japan's prime minister. He's got some skeletons in his closet to say the absolute least.
has he collected his ancestors skeletons in his closet? weird.
relatives in imperial japanese administration?
Kishi is a huge skeleton. Astounding how many war criminals were pardoned by the US occupation authorities in Japan.
@@ayush.kumar.13907 His maternal grandfather ran Manchukuo during the 1930s. Raped women, employed the Yakuza to break unions, enforce slave labor, and run drugs. Probably worthy of being a Class A War Criminal like Tojo, he was instead pardoned by the US and handpicked to lead the postwar government.
@@user-nc5yc9es6j Abe's mother's father was a prime minister of Japan named Nobosuke Kishi. He committed a lot of war crimes, including mass murder of civilians and using prisoners as slaves in world war 2. Somehow he was completely pardoned by the Americans after the war ended, and served for 12 years as prime minister little over a decade after his crimes.
Do u know how better the world would be if most people knew this
if the skin is black it's black if white, white, brown or fair colour. Even my father is white if my colour is black then it's black or vise versa. 😁

This was amazing. Thank you!
Still don't feel like being blind to race, which as you said, is an unscientific social construct often defined by racism itself, is a bad idea. Maybe it's just because I'm African born and know my roots somewhat. But there is a such thing as being hyper focused on race, and I don't think that's the solution.
Yup. After all if we let race be defined racism for any longer it's not really going to change. My opinion is people saying things like in this that "unfortunately they're still seen as different the 'society' " are subconsciously supporting the racist caste system of their society. It's not that the opposite of being focused on race or making things a "race thing" is to be "color-blind" but is to acknowledge that in reality skin color is not what's holding people back the most, more than race,, it's not the white wall of white supremacy is the green wall of impoverished non whites in America. Kamala, Obama, etc. Are a dime in a dozen, because of their families' affluence. The richer the person the less stigmatized they get. And that is why I think that acknowledging race as "unfortunately still a thing nowadays" in the slightest is embracing and agreeing with white supremacist lunatics who have way too much power in the minds of the American people.
The way Race works in the USA is a racist concept which the public views as a counter to white supremacy but is actually working in support of it. Just like with the bipartisan elections, the USA always manages to keep the status quo under control.
Yeah, I think the left is really pinning to this white privilege thing and trying to bring black people up. Imo we should ignore race, and just fix the problems effecting them, like poverty, drugs, homicide, fatherless households. But fix them nationwide. Why specialise reform just for the needy that are POC...
It is certainly different in different countries, but here in the US, it's very easy for white people to be blind to race, but mostly what it does is shield us from seeing all the ways that our society isn't blind to race
@@Oscar-vv6dn Yeah the obsession with race/gender is completely and utterly regressive.
well the fact that you "feel like" it's proof that race is in fact, a social construct.

Nobody disputes the existence of slavery in the Americas. That’s how all the Africans and poor Europeans got here.

@@buddhastl7120 I checked to see if my comment was in bold font, and it was not.. Phew!! lol
African Americans were given US citizenship in 1800s before Native Americans. Native Americans weren't given the right of US citizenship until 1924. Yet they're the natural born citizen of the United States before the European American.
Why is America emphasising race and ethnicity in the 21st Century !!
People think that they can gain power by calling someone else a racist
Because political power, institutions, laws, and hateful bigotry continue to focus on it today with the same mindset and evils of the 1600's.
IKR!
Because racism is this country's original sin and it's still a powerful force. Pretending it isn't just lets it continue to fester.
Lilian Flynn The answer is simple: America was built on the worldview race as a means to ease the conscience of the Western European enslavers.
Kamala spent a good portion of her life in Canada, for any proud Canadians watching. Her mom did cancer research in Quebec, where Kamala and her sister then went to school.
I've got to say, I just keep coming back to this to read the recent comments because there's so much wild insanity energy here. Always some weird new theory about race or about her parents or about how US citizenship works.
AKA racism
@jeffmacdonald9863 Have you lived your life in a cave?! This dna info. is not new!! In 1953, Watson and Crick not only described the double-helix structure of DNA, but also embraced the idea that genes contained a code that expresses information and thereby changed our view of LIFE.

I love your TH-cam page I learn so much thank-you ❤
ok now do my family tree lol
hmm- so you totally ignored her father's line? it is most interesting. and i have it. it is not at all what you assume since Chrishy was born to Mary Mulvaney Brown and Hamilton Brown. they were married btw. not at all unusual in Jamaica. maybe you need to do more research? Christiana, who they called Chrishy, was not illegitimate at all it seems. she was the daughter of Hamilton's second wife. they married -- yeah you heard that right- married- after his first wife Isabella died. so no, she wasn't a product of rape. she was a product of marriage. since both of his grandmothers, including Miss Iris Fenigan Christie were black- most likely Creole- then it seems his great grandfather had chosen a black woman as a wife the second time around. i don't know if his first two sons were white, but both his daughters were black.
oh and another thing, Hamilton was Mary's second husband. she was married to a Brown before him, which is why her name is listed as Brown before she married him. i don't know what her maiden name was- it never showed up on anything I researched. but i am sure someone somewhere will find it.
Thanks. Much closer to what I recall coming across. I know many issue oriented people, especially from California, who had much disdain for her actions as Attorney General. It was around the time word was out she was selected early 2016 by the big Dem donors, as not to run as Hillary's VP, but rather to be the next in line. My friends and co-workers were quick to squawk about her claims with respect to race. I did look at some articles by her father, around the time he publicly said something negative about her public statements. I was merely casually interested at the time. It was an easy find then.
Sources for any of that?
It doesn't really make sense though. The timeline is too short. The slave owner Hamilton Brown was obviously from the early 1800s, before slavery was abolished in Jamaica. He apparently died in 1843. He can't really have been Miss Chrishy's father, since she died in the early 60s, according to Donald Harris. There need to be at least one more generation - quite possibly more.
According to Snopes, there was a second Hamilton Brown involved, who may be who you were looking at. They suggest that the Mary Melvina Brown who married that Hamilton Brown was the daughter of the slave owner Hamilton Brown. Still no direct link to Christiana though.
The slave rape would have been a generation or two before Christiana, since it would have needed to be in the slavery days, which ended in Jamaica in the 1830s.
Regardless of any of that and regardless of any documented ancestry, it's practically impossible to be Jamaican and black (or mixed) without having slaves in your ancestry - unless it's from known very recent African immigrants. The original African population was brought there as slaves and there was little voluntary immigration from Africa after that.
@TheDotaGuyN'LetsNotForgetCS GO Even granting that, which isn't entirely clear, that "free black woman" either had been a slave or was the descendant of slaves, since that's what Africans were brought to Jamaica for.
@TheDotaGuyN'LetsNotForgetCS GO Since she was free when she married a white man, her slavery heritage no longer counts?

The first poem I learned.
Nancy Hanks
If Nancy Hanks
Came back as a ghost,
Seeking news
Of what she loved most,
She’d ask first
“Where’s my son?
What’s happened to Abe?
What’s he done?”
“Poor little Abe,
Left all alone
Except for Tom,
Who’s a rolling stone;
He was only nine
The year I died.
I remember still
How hard he cried.”
“Scraping along
In a little shack,
With hardly a shirt
To cover his back,
And a prairie wind
To blow him down,
Or pinching times
If he went to town.”
“You wouldn’t know
About my son?
Did he grow tall?
Did he have fun?
Did he learn to read?
Did he get to town?
Do you know his name?
Did he get on?”
That'd be very interesting!

Can you do one of Obama's family tree
That would be really interesting
G link Obamas ancestry begins in Kenya, he comes from a Muslim ancestors. That is why he gave every Muslim refugee that came to America to them he gave health insurance. Free while u got to pay if u want health insurance. Also he invited the terrorist group called the brother hood of man a wing of Hamas to the white house for tea. He was funding the Palestians people with billions of dollars. But this money was given to Hamas to buy arms, n rocket launches to attack Israel.
Obama is related to every American president it’s all in the bloodline it has nothing to do with him being black, he just happened to be a good candidate since black was the new trend. American presidents are chosen by bloodline. They are all descendants of some European king. There is enough of information if you find the time and do some research
Obama married a man big Mike, that tells us Much.
Two men have NEVER produced children together, fake daughter's too. Lies, lies, more Lies!

@@edendvatri If you mean Charlemagne then congrats, pretty much anyone of European descent is descended from him.
This video has some good information. I disagree with some. But the most significant error is saying she is "Black American." You spend large parts of the video saying how she is Jamaican, and Indian. Where do you show she has any connection with the long term black population of America? You show no evidence of this, as non-exist. At best you can say she is of mixed Caribbean Black heritage. She does not share the same "language, culture, history of America's "foundational Blacks."
You don't have to have any connections to african american slavery to be a "black" american. The same way you don't have to be a descendant of the british to be a white america.
Well said. "Mixed carribean" would define her much better.
@@moonie1825 Um yes, but everyone who is white is not German. And Germans are not English. Both re white. Nor is everyone who is "black" or more accurately of the African diaspora or African "African-American". I like to put America first and say American of African descent. All are African or the African diaspora. Kamala is the daughter of an African-Caribbean man, and an Indian woman. And her African-Caribbean father was kicked out of their home at the age of 5, and she was raised solely by her Indian immigrant mother. She does not share the history of Americans of African descent i.e. "Black." For example slavery (there are differences between southern and Caribbean), language, there are differences between the English spoken in America and the Caribbean. There are major differences in our Apartheid (Jim Crow). Even simple things like African-American food is uniquely American history. To share the same ethnicity, you share the same culture and history. She does not. Kamala is not "African-American."
@@TheBardoftheAmericanRedoubt except children of germans that immigrate to america don't call themselves ethnic germans(because they aren't). In america you do not have to share the same genetic history to be considererd apart of the ethnic group you mainly have to look like you are apart of the ethnic group and to some extent reflect as much in the general understanding of their current culture. If you wany to argue that kamala harris isn't african american because she wasn't culturally raised as a black person typically would of in america then the same could be said about plenty of african americans that could trace their lineage back to slavery. Also i don't know why you are highlighting the differences between caribbeans and african americans. Kamala isn't from the caribbean her father is. So highlighting this difference does not apply for her. Thats like me looking at 2 white americans one that can trace their ancestry to russia and another to england and then saying the one with russian ancestry isn't really american white. It's just not how it's done in america.

You failed to mention Kamala mom is of Brahmin caste which is the highest social caste in India.
Thanks for sharing that information.
She is full brown
Even as giving a replying comment towards other said bloggers; thus, (based on some already giving historical references & possible Birth Certificate info) although Kamala Harris was genetically produced by a Black (possibly mixed-race) Jamaican male & Indian female, there was no real indication of her being 'labeled', recognized as being Black or (of African descent) African American.
Is it not true that, even from birth, her racial - genetic line is only listed as: Caucasian, Indian and Jamaican? For someone that as said: "My parents met and continually collaborated at African American civil rights meetings, as well as ultimately often taking me (as an infant and young female child) to those same meetings with them". Thus, my questioning comment is: ? What ultimately happened to Kamala Harris and her final relationship with Black - Richly Melanated males? In the end, is it not possible that this same Black father was not very active within her overall life or final up-bringing? Is this also a case of another Black female seeking vengeance on what her Black father did (or maybe better said didn't do) towards a Black daughter????
Who cares ? She is of Black and Indian descent.
Kamala’s background makes her more American than anything.
Race: human
Ethnicity: politician
America has a warped view on race, anybody can be considered “black” even if they don’t have any African ancestry.
I'm german and Swedish but I consider myself black

That's not true does Kamala not have African ancestry? Does Obama not have African ancestry?
She has more than one White Ancestor. Not every mixed race baby in the past was a product of rape. That is a false presumption.
She had Scottish, North Irish and Irish Ancestors.
Kamala’s Paternal grandmother Iris Finegan was the daughter of
Patrick Finegan (Irish) married to Mary Watson (Jamaican) NOT a RAPE case
Kamala’s Paternal 2nd Great Grandfather Hamilton Brown (North Irish) he was married to Mary Melvina (Jamaican) NOT a RAPE Case - yes he was a Plantation owner and slave owner
Kamala’s 2nd Great Grandmother Was Elizabeth Brown (Scottish) she was married to James Henry Harris (Jamaican) NOT a RAPE case
This video falsely delivers her fathers ancestry.
Elizabeth Brown, pioneer for the BBC movement!
Also note Jamaican and Irish are not race, so say A white irish person or white Jamaican or black jamaican
Also note Jamaican and Irish are not race, so say A white irish person or black irish person or white Jamaican or black jamaican. I get your point tho👏🏾
And someone speaks the true!!! Lets just hope people listen
Do you have a source for any of that? I haven't seen anything more definitive than Donald Harris' claim his grand-mother Chrishy Brown was descended from Hamilton Brown. Snopes says there's a Mary Melvina who was the daughter of Hamilton Brown (the slave owner) and an unnamed woman, who later married a different Hamilton Brown, but no verified link between her and Chrishy Brown
She’s not “African American” rather, more like Jamaican and Indian.
@ΛΕΡΘΕΞΑΝΑΞ ΣΕΣΕΓΓΕΝΒΑΡΦΑΡΑΓΓΗΣ yes, but she is black
She is not Christian, that is used just to get the votes. She is more Hindu since she is influenced more by her mother rather than her father whom she resents since he does not agree with her stand on abortion, gay marriage, and illegal immigrations without proper legal documents.
Um, the islands in the Caribbean, i.e. Jamaica, is considered part of North America. So, she is Afro-American/Indian.

"How society chooses to define them" is a difficult point because in this context society means "the aggregate of individual behavior" rather than formal rules from e.g. regulation, law, etc. So I would argue what you actually mean is a sort of average of how individuals respond to individuals who have specific physical traits. On one hand it's a small distinction, but on the other hand it's a huge distinction because it's relatively simple to change laws democratically, and enforcing rules about private interactions between individuals is something that can't or shouldn't be the purview of the State. I really like your videos. Thanks!
@UsefulCharts so do you consider yourself British, Irish or German? I'm not sure which is the most looked down on which according to your logic is the group you should identify with.
Except "British" is not considered an ethnicity.
I've been seeing/hearing the term "Blasian" a lot lately, usually referring to someone who has one parent who is primarily of sub-Subharan African descent, and the other parent of primarily Asian descent.
In Asia like my country Indonesia, if you are a children of mix marriage of African and Asian especially Indonesian we called them Blasian (Black Asian). If you are children of mix Marriage of European and Indonesian we called them Indos (Indonesian-European)

Because she was a woman, which he promised. She's a person of colour, which could help him win the black vote (which he needs to consolidate after his recent blunders). And she was a presidential nominee with experience and name recognition. She was the frontrunner, and expected choice.

Arun you are correct. The people from the south are darker skinned, which is why they are discriminated by the light skinned Indians of the North.
@@blambrax firstly, South Indians aren't discriminated just coz they are dark. As mentioned in the video, India is almost a continent in itself. Someone from Tamil Nadu has totally different culture and ways of life than someone from Assam or Gujarat or Punjab. So, discrimination is bound to occur in such clashes of opposing Cultures.
Even North Indians are discriminated against in South.
Secondly, there's literally no reason for is to Discriminate Tamilians based on their color. Coz, even many of us are quite black. We are just a mixed race.
@@blambrax I dont think you have even spend a weekend in north India to hold such a view.
And FYI the people who are really discriminated in North are actually North easterners followed by Biharis and Bengalis and that's not bcos of their skin colour !
Wherever there will be people there will be a discrimination too so dont assume by default that's bcos of colour. I am sure Sinhalese look alike to Tamilians but still there is discrimination right?
@@shubhamsingh-nl4fu this whole "race" discrimination is a U.S. thing and they gear it toward black people. It is absurd. As you noted, true discrimination is more than skin color. I've been to India a couple times and the people I knew there explained that in India they have a cast system that openly discriminates or "labels" based on where in the continent you come from and what your ancestors do for a living. Is this accurate @shubham singh ?
And..here in the U.S. there is real "discrimination" against disabled people ( mentally and physically disabled), old people, fat people, uneducated people..the list goes on. But having worked in HR for a decade or so, I can honestly say that due to most companies fearing lawsuits, will literally NOT fire a poor performer if they are black. That is legit discrimination..fear based. One company needed to reduce staff by 10% which came down like 30 positions. They let the slackers that were black slide and cut whites instead. A few of the whites cut really were underperforming, but not all of them that got cut were. So because of fear..black slackers got to stay..underperforming and all.
@@gypsygirl9 US politics is now more and more resembling Indian politics which is rather disheartening!
As you know in India after Independence about 20% of all govt jobs & collage seats were reserved(aka Affirmative action) for people of low caste for 10 yrs so to help them reach mainstream. But after 10 yrs as you may suspect ,politicians keep extending the limit and it has been now over 7 decades and it is still on going. And so people realising that res. is going to stay , now every caste and clan wants to be backward(same as everyone in US wants to be black) so as to get reservation due to this from initial 20%, res. is now reached to 50% in Federal jobs and Univ and about 60-70% in state jobs! And now some parties are campaigning to enforce the same res. on private companies too.
And if you want to get an idea of what kind of people are now considered backward/oppressed!! just search "Farmers protest Delhi" the caste which is leading the protest (Jats) are considered backward(from 1999-) and enjoy 27% reservation.

En Africa la mezcla de blaco y negro es mestizo. Para los africanos ,Obama, Halle Berry, kamala no son negros, son mestizos.
South Indians are not just Caucasian they have Asian and African dna too.
South Indians have No African or Persian Ancestry. Majority of South Asian DNA comes from Indus Valley people, with a small portion from Steppe Pastoralists aka Aryans and another small portion from Ancient Hunter Gatherers. This is the basic genetic makeup of ALL North and South Indians except for Bengalis and Adivasis (Tribal people like Munda and Santhali speakers), who have another genetic component descended from Austroasiatic language speaking people from South East Asia. Now there is obvious variation in the proportions. North Indians have more Steppe Pastoralist DNA compared to South Indians. Also there is variation among castes. Brahmins having a higher Steppe Pastoralist DNA than other castes.
@King Kong Exactly Indian is not a race. Its similar to hispanics just a mix of peoples.
Just do a Google search for African Indians they DO exist. You can see pics of them on the internet. Just research.
Can't hide Jamaican records bro, great granddaughter of a former slave owner
@Dirt Law502 How stultifyingly ignorant of history can you be to blame the descendants of raped slaves because a “former slave owner” was a paternal ancestor? Or perhaps you’re just a troll who refuses to acknowledge that literally OWNING another human being in the same way you might own livestock gives you absolute control over even the very breath in that person’s body, so it goes without saying you are also free to exploit them sexually in any way you see fit. “Benefited from slavery” you say? Seriously? Obviously, your “pure whiteness” has done nothing whatsoever towards endowing you with critical thinking skills. What’s sad is, you’re probably too stupid to feel embarrassed.
You should never punish a person because their grandfather was evil which they have no control or involvement and let alone was born during that era.

Was Kamala Harris ever on the tv show "Finding Your Roots"?
Could you say that Black and White could be their own ethnicities? In the sense that Black people in the United States have ethnic ancestry from West Africa and Europe. So this combination, combined with the unique culture found in the United States, could make the argument that Black is its own ethnicity. The same could be said for Whites too as Whites in the United States are pretty much just a mixture of different European ethnic groups.
You wouldn’t call an ethnic Frenchman White because chances are they would be 100% French and not a mixture of different European ethnic groups.
The problem there is that you're using language and location to define GENETICS! Ethnicity is a people living and breeding in one place for generations, but generally only IMPLIED that they're weren't other people there they mixed with or others who entered their community, or members who left and came back with children from another ethnic group! Too many variables and a geneticist would be hard pressed to recognize these on a test! Negroid, Caucazoid and a mix between the two is Mongoloid. Keep it simple and there will be less tribalism

ADOS/Black Americans or American descendants of slavery have a history in the USA that goes like this.. 250 years of chattel slavery, followed by 100 years of Jim Crow laws and wealth stealing practices the have left this PARTICULAR ETHNIC group wealthless. This PARTICULAR group has also dealt with redlining, black codes, debt peonage and countless lynchings and massacres. This PARTICULAR ETHNIC group worked for 250 years for free as slaves unable to gain wealth, read or write. Then after that for another 100 years this PARTICULAR ETHNIC GROUP had laws written SPECIFICALLY to keep them from gaining wealth, accessing benefits like the GI Bill, the Homestead Act which provided millions of acres of free land to US citizens, proper schools, neighborhoods, jobs etc. which has led to the massive racial wealth gap.
Kamala Harris, while having the DNA of an African, she is not of this PARTICULAR ETHNIC GROUP. Her mother is a Brahmin Indian professional. She was a high earning woman from a top caste lineage. Brahmin Indians are basically the white people of India. Her father is part Jamaican from a slave trader lineage opposite that of ADOS and was also a high earning professional. Her life and family has not had the same set backs as those who are descendants of American Chattel slavery. It doesn't mean she is a bad person. It simply means she is not some miracle success story as she would be if she were ADOS. She is 1/4 "black" and born in America to affluent parents, but she is not ADOS/black American. Kamala has had anti ADOS policies her entire career. She is against reparations for ADOS. She has made a career locking up ADOS/Black Americans. She is not ADOS. She has always been considered Indian American but since ADOS/Black Americans are politically uneducated and vote mostly based on race, she is being advertised as Black American to garner the black vote. Calling her African American is misleading. She has a drop of African blood but as I mentioned there is much more to being African American/ADOS than blood
Appreciate this comment. Do you have any links or articles though on where she made a cerebral of “locking up” black Americans as you stated?

Imagine the mental gymnastics required for someone to recognise the subtle genetic differences between neighboring, marginal ethnic groups - separated by a hill and probably a few hundred years of history - yet who can wilfully deny the existence of any genetic difference between geographic groupings of said ethnicities - separated by oceans, massive deserts and the literal millenia of human history necessary to find a common ancestor - genetic differences so distinct and obvious that one can easily discern them visually - no DNA test even required.
That last part explains your flaw. Race in the modern day is shallow and unscientific. After all, you even laid out the fact that ethnicity is more nuanced and basically serves the same purpose as race. So why not just use that? The problem with race is that it is too fluid and broad to be a scientific categorization. Rather it serves as a social categorization; thus race is real but not scientific and is a social construct.
In addition, the meaning of races change over time as it has been used to include some Jews and Middle Eastern peoples when they would definitely be seen as a different race in Ancient Rome or Greece. Race also changes based on cultures as well. For example, up until pretty recently in human history (about a hundred years back) native "Han" Chinese still considered Manchus to be an "other" even though from a Western perspective they were practically the same. And that's the thing some countries don't even use race because it's so arbitrary to call yourself Asian in a country like Malaysia or White in a country like Germany.

Thank you for this video. I am a Biology teacher and have to explain this concept all the time. In Biological studies nobody talks about race. Even in purely genetic terms we as humans have far more in common with each other that our ethnicities might suggest. Those DNA testing companies mostly lie to you when they tell you that they can pinpoint your ethnicity or where you or your ancestors came from. Some groups that have very distinctive genetic anomalies that have perpetuated in close knit communities can be pinpointed, but that is not very common. It is rather silly that people get so hide bound about determining a persons ethnicity when really all human kind is just a continuum of similar genetic traits, the rest is just environment.

Many Jamaican ancestors were slave owners from Europe they prowled the slave Barracks at night or exploited domesticated slaves and had illegitimate children with them.

Kamala Harris is South Asian and Jamaican. Dr. Shyamala Gopalan Harris raised her daughters to identify as Black and embrace their Indian heritage. That does not mean one race is favored over the other. It means society assigns race the way people look on the outside.
I absolutely agree.
Can u make a video on how much Spanish is the Spanish Royal family. Like is their ancestry more Spanish or French or German
probably to a large part swiss, if they are still descendants of the habsburgs.
@@jurgnobs1308 Habsburgs were Germans
Jürg Nobs probably a lot more German and French because descendants of the German habsburgs and the French bourbons
@@OnThePath777 1. germany did not exist at the time. in fact, it didnt for quite a while 2. they ruled in austria mostly 3. they originate from the town of habsburg, which is in switzerland.
hence: no, they were not germans
@@eingamer1918 the "german habsburgs" are not a thing. the habsburgs were a swiss family with their base of power being mostly in austria.
Fun fact:I’m part Irish my great grandmother on my mom’s side was Irish
Meena Harris is A TikToker
Also I would like to see the Rockefeller’s get done
That'd be super interesting!
If you are of mixed race you are not identified as the race of the "least privileged group" you are identified as part of the minority group in a given context. My children are half European (Dutch) and half Indian (Gujarati). In their sports teams, where the majority were European, they were referred to as Indian, at their Gujarati language classes at the local Hindu Temple, where all other pupils were of full Gujarati Ancestry, they were referred to as White. In both cases this was not done in any negative way. This was just a way for them to be quickly identified and was, at worst, a subject of interest and curiosity on the part of the other children they were interacting with
Thank you for your wise words and outlook.
I totally agree. The designation of "race" if you have different ones represented by your parents, ends up being what you look most like, and what's socially acceptable at the time.
Peter Walters well explained, I agree.
The narrator said he was talking about the general attitude in the US. I get the feeling you don’t live in the US because it’s uncommon for someone who isn’t and/or doesn’t look full European to be called white. I have friends from South America who are considered white in their countries but not in the US.
Very true. People are also often just referred to as what they look too. I don't know why people identify as one or the other, and not both.

If race is a social construct, what is meant by human race?
Human species.
Bold move, UsefulCharts. Let's see if it pays off.
It will, she was just made VP candidate.
Well played, sir. Well played.
@@stauber44 everybody expected that.
Pays off? How?
@@elizabethblane201 The video could get a lot of traction as she was at the time of release a favourite for the running mate pick, and she's kind of controversial.
@7:15... Why "Black" and not "African"?
I know right!? He makes this big grandiose point about how race is a social construct. And then says, but lets focus on race...
In Africa Kamala would be considered “Mixed” cuz that’s what she is, they aren’t playing the racial games. They call you exactly what you are
Infact in german (my mother tongue) the term race isn't used any more for historical reasons
I’d like to hear more about how Kamala supposedly celebrated Kwanza with her granny before it was invented and if she was indeed the little girl who said “fweedom” to MLK jr or just plagiarized that from his Playboy interview.
