[Governor Dinwiddie]

Technically, Kamala is 3/4 Caucasian and 1/4 Negroid. Her mother is Caucasian from the Indian subcontinent. Her father is a mulatto from Jamaica. Kamala is a quadroon.

Your whole comment is loaded with racism and does not belong on FR. We are not racists here, at least a vast majority, so why don't you keep yours to yourself?

"Negroid" is considered offensive and derogatory today due to its association with racial discrimination, colonialism, and scientifically invalid racial classifications. Using such terms perpetuates harmful stereotypes and reinforces a legacy of racism.

The term "mulatto" is now considered offensive and outdated due to its roots in slavery and colonialism, and its use perpetuates negative stereotypes and racial distinctions.

The term "quadroon" is considered derogatory and outdated today. It is rooted in a history of racial discrimination and the oppressive practices of slavery and segregation. Such terms were used to enforce social hierarchies and to discriminate against people of mixed race, often determining their legal rights, social status, and freedom.

Currently acceptable terms for the outdated racial classifications are as follows:

• Negroid: Use "Black," "African," or "African American."
• Quadroon: Use "mixed-race" or "multiracial."
• Mulatto: Use "mixed-race" or "biracial."

These terms are more respectful and align with modern understandings of race and identity.

Maybe you use outdated, racist terms for shock value or something, maybe you are racist, I don't know. But I do know they are wrong and they reflect on all Freepers and FreeRepublic. And, speaking personally, please stop.

I just heard from Bugs Bunny.

Kamala is a maroon.
