kamala is not black! do you people have eyes?

She may be black in terms of how she thinks about herself, due to part of her ancestry.  But in terms of how she is perceived by many Americans, I think you are right.  I don't ever think of her as a black woman.  Whether blacks would tend to think of her as one of their own is a different question, and I really don't know the answer to that.

She would absolutely be thought of as Black by most people, as the One-drop rule still is the standard for many.


The one-drop rule dies when people who have thought themselves 100% white get a fgenetic test that disproves such.
