I think the following is what I have read, although it also seems that her percent black is even LESS than 1/8th.

If this is incorrect, I am happy to learn the correct situation.

Kamala Harris is seven-eighths (7/8) Asian Indian and White,
and only one-eighth (1/8) Jamaican Black.

Her Mother: 100% Asian Indian.

Her Father: 75% Caucasian, 25% Black. Family includes Irish Slaveholders in Jamaica. Her grandfather was half white and half black, so he was 50% black. He had Kamala’s father with a white woman, so Kamala’s father was born 75% white and 25% black.

So when Kamala’s father (25% black/75% white) and her mother (100% Asian Indian) had Kamala, half of each is in her make up.

Therefore, Kamala Harris is:

• 50.0% Asian Indian (four-eighths or one-half Asian Indian (4/8 or 1/2));
• 37.5% Caucasian (three-eighths Caucasian); (3/8)
(that adds up to 7/8)
• only 12.5% Black (one-eighth Black) (1/8).

The one-drop rule was a legal principle of racial classification that was prominent in the 20th-century United States. It asserted that any person with even one ancestor of black ancestry ("one drop" of "black blood") is considered black.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

With that racial makeup which you pointed out, The American Heritage Dictionary classifies her as an octoroon.
