Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris is descended from Irish slave owner Hamilton Brown, the namesake of Brown’s Town in Jamaica, who recruited massive numbers of Irish migrants to Jamaica to work on his sugar plantations after the British empire abolished slavery.
Kamala Harris’ father Donald Harris wrote an essay entitled “Reflections of a Jamaican Father” for Jamaica Global Online, in which he made a startling admission (emphasis added):
“My roots go back, within my lifetime, to my paternal grandmother Miss Chrishy (née Christiana Brown, descendant of Hamilton Brown who is on record as plantation and slave owner and founder of Brown’s Town) and to my maternal grandmother Miss Iris (née Iris Finegan, farmer and educator, from Aenon Town and Inverness, ancestry unknown to me). The Harris name comes from my paternal grandfather Joseph Alexander Harris, land-owner and agricultural ‘produce’ exporter (mostly pimento or all-spice), who died in 1939 one year after I was born and is buried in the church yard of the magnificent Anglican Church which Hamilton Brown built in Brown’s Town (and where, as a child, I learned the catechism, was baptized and confirmed, and served as an acolyte).”
Harris’ father’s passage ends
Hamilton Brown was not only a slave owner, but also an engineer of mass Irish migration to Jamaica after the British empire abolished slavery in 1834.
Jamaican Family Search recorded: “Hamilton Brown owned several plantations over the years 1817 to about 1845. According to the 1818 Almanac which can be found on this site, (Jamaican Family Search) , he was the owner of Minard (128 slaves) which he must have acquired from its previous owner (John Bailie) in 1815 or later. The number of slaves on this estate approximates the number of slaves in one of the registers attributed to his ownership (124 slaves). The other register (86 slaves) cannot be assigned to any estate, although he is listed in Almanacs for subsequent years as owning several, (Antrim, Grier Park, Colliston, Little River, Retirement and Unity Valley).”
Here is a full accounting of the slaves owned by Hamilton Brown, according to the National Archives in London, as of June 28, 1817 in the parish of St. Ann in Jamaica:
Hamilton Brown officially swore to the authenticity of this record, stating (See link):
“I Hamilton Brown do swear that the above list and return consisting of two sheets is a true perfect and complete list and return, to the best of my knowledge and belief in every particular therein mentioned of all and every slaves possessed by me as owner, considered as most permanently settled, worked and employed in the Parish of Saint Ann on the twenty Eight day of June One thousand Eight Hundred and Seventeen without fraud, deceit or evasion So help me God.
Sworn before me this twenty fourth day of September 1817”
She’s a fake and phony and those are the best things one can say about her.
But she didn’t own slaves.
Get out yo checkbook bitch.
There will be no “President Kamala Harris”. Can’t they understand that? I mean, it’s over before it’s over. KAG!
Does she support reparations?
Senator Harris, Since you believe in reparations for slavery, How much are you going to PERSONALLY pay in reparations to each of the descendants of the slaves your family owned?
If you aren’t willing to put your own money where your mouth is, then you aren’t really for “slave reparations.”
The question would be--would the money come from general tax revenues or from a special tax which only white Americans must pay? Otherwise some of the money would be coming from black Americans.
That should make reparations a bit easier
She supports reparations. She wants to take your tax money and give it to the descendants of slaves. She needs to surrender all her assets and give it to the slaves her descendants owned. .
And like every one of the clown candidates, she wants to own you.
That would be unconstitutional.
Then again, we have a Chief Justice who can't figure out what is and isn't a tax.
Does that mean that she, like Barack Obama, will be paying reparations, not getting them?
“But she didn’t own slaves.”
No one is saying she did. She does support “some type of” reparations for slavery. And that is the point of the article’s reveal: the irony/hypocrisy that she advocate that all taxpayers pay for the crime of her ancestors.
My Lordie Miss Kamala you got some splainin to do darlin. Willie Brown’s mistress slave owning relatives and a temper to boot this election is over for her. Please Miss Kamala Brown stick around things are getting real interesting. Soap opera made for TV.
I saw a youtube that showed that she wasn’t in the first class to be integrated in Berkely. That yearbooks show it was integrated when she was born.
So she flat out lied about that when she was prosecuting Biden. But I still love her attack, “I don’t believe you’re a racist, but apologize for your racist actions.”
So Kamalasutra may actually be a cousin of Willie Brown...
So she’ll have to, potentially, pay reparations to herself?
I love it when the guilt-by-association game play is turned around against these DemonCRAPs. Let them breath deep their own steamy pile.
Shouldn’t she be paying reparations instead of demanding them?
