    "Just like Obama, Harris has exposed narrow-minded views of blackness with her presidential run," argues @jemelehill:http://on.theatln.tc/YhCqkKf

        Seriously. Did anyone discuss repugnant racist @RealDonaldTrump's whiteness during his presidential run? Actually we did because he was an unearthly shade of orange, but you know what I mean...

        She's not my first choice at the moment but these attacks on her, and on her record, are really unfair. Both the far left and the far right are way over their skis on these criticisms.

        The Right, for the most part, has almost nothing to say about Harris' blackness. Almost all the controversy is from within the different parts of the Democratic coalition which is trying to reconcile her identity and internally contradictory identity politics theory.

        Because according to TV, blackness exists in two ways; welfare recipients who are scamming America, or the Huxtables. With all of the complexities of blackness on full display all over America, the media still wants us to be what they've decided for us

        Funny how when an ordinary person is looking for a job or a place to live, "one drop" is all it takes for them to be Black. But if they happen to get famous they have to have been born in Africa to be "Black." Hilarious?

        That's why so many mixed ppl suffer with identity crises. They often feel like they don't belong if they don't hit a certain level of whiteness or blackness within those two communities.
