      As an American-born person with a Jamaican father, she's an American of African descent. Thus, African American. I'm confused why you're confused.

      Well... Black is diasporic designation, Af-Am more specifically refers to people who trace their ancestry in the US thru slavery or contemporaneous to it. It’s why Michelle was so important to Obama’s biography; she transferred proximity to a historic Af-Am community onto him.

      Harris will likely lean into the parts of her biography that underline this connection with Af-Amness...Howard, AKA, her parents’ civil rights work. I dunno where the q is coming from, but this is not *nothing,* you know?

      Thank you for weighing in. I just really dislike the presumptions of guilt and imputation of bad motivations for having raised the question, as respectfully as possible. Twitter is clearly not a great venue for discussing this.

          I think the criticism stems from the fact that with a non-white candidate there is a presumption that their identity is part of their appeal and that must therefore be questioned. Why don’t we ask similar questions about the appeal of white candidates?

          Surely after the last 10 years it’s glaringly obvious that white identity is also a thing and influences voters. So don’t just notice identity when it’s not white.

          We have a birther in the white house, so seriously, let me let you in on a secret, the days of white guys like me and you being granted the presumption of good faith are over for good reason. Do better, demonstrate good faith first.

          Honestly, once you falsely accused Maxine Waters of assaulting you, it became really difficult to give you the presumption of innocence. That's why you shouldn't have wasted your credibility like that. Could have come in handy later.

          Jamaicans are the citizens of Jamaica and their descendants in the Jamaican diaspora. Most Jamaicans are of African descent.
