    Google it. Hindu/Jamaican of Irish background. Formerly first Indian this, that and the other thing. Definitely not black or of that community.

      Let’s see, she went to Howard University, a HBU, and while there was a member of a black sorority, but you know what? Let’s let you (presumably white male) decide who is black enough to be black

      STFU and GTFO of here

      Someone with Jamaican ancestry says they’re black, they’re black.

          “Hindu,” as you so eloquently put it, is a religion. Not a race, but I’m sure an obvious Rhode scholar such as yourself already knows that.

            It’s a religion and a people of the indus River valley. Country us called Industan.or Hindustan in many languages. Even Sikhs are Hindus, bud.

          “Them being black doesn’t make them black”

          Care to elaborate on this little nugget of smegma?

                Clearly you dont know the difference between nationality and race, and couldn’t even figure out the analogy without further explanation. Aborigines ain’t black either, doofus

                  That wasn’t an analogy. You can see skin color, you can’t see nationality. An aboriginal person would absolutely be seen as black in America. Do you live in America? We have black, brown, yellow and white and you’re gonna get put into one of those categories regardless of nationality.

                    After all the time the general media soent convincing us, USA black is its own culture, you switch back to this shit when it’s convenient? And ffs, aborigines ain’t black, under any definition. Your argument just became so circular you inadvertently agreed with my initial statement. Sometimes you can absolutely see nationality. It’s really easy to tell a Korean from a Japanese from a Chinese

          91% of Jamaicans are of black African heritage. Of those 15% are lighter skin black. Harris’s grandmother on that side was dark skin black and her grandfather on that side was lighter skinned black. The reason he is lighter skinned is because someone in his lineage in the late 1700’s was likely raped by an Irish slave owner, they have genealogical research on her ancestors. Years ago colonial jamaica separated light skin a dark skin black people under slavery and ultimately it resulted in 2 different black racial groups in Jamaica. All this information is readily available with a Google search. Race is just a social construct. But within that construct she is, black, brown, white. Ethnically Jamaican, Indian, Irish. Hope this helps…
