Full title: Slave Registers from London Name the Slaves Kamala Harris' Ancestor Owned
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).”

Her one ancestor owned more slaves than all of my ancestors did--combined.
Oh Noes! Kamala is a FRAUD?
The world of slavery is as diverse as the Democrat party in that races other than White owned slaves as well ...
Can there be a new—— made for TV series like Roots about her family slave holding?
Maybe a Mandingo type with Willie Brown.
And Jerry Nadler, shirtless, with a look implying he is going to seduce a woman during the commercials. Too steamy for TV.
WHOOPSIE!
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).”
128 slaves, and counting--Wow! Kamala is going to owe big time!
then by the laws as written by SJWs and the powers given to me to speak power to truth - Kamala Harris MUST resign her positions immediately and give all her money to Kaepernick.
her ancestry does not include BEING slaves, just OWNING them.
We need to explore the ancestries of all these democrat candidates. Who knows what we might find?
"It wasn't me; it was my ancestors."
Touché, Kamala.
We can say exactly the same thing, but in most cases our ancestors, unlike yours, owned NO slaves.
Yet, you expect descendants of non-slave owners to pay reparations to descendants of non-slaves, based purely on the basis of skin color. That's racist.
Most descendants of slaves are also a descendant of slave owners, the problem is usually proving the slave line. This is a big bag of nothing.
I saw this on CNN /s
I know it won’t happen, but it would be something if in the next debate Slow Mo Uncle Joe would start reading that list of slave names, and ask KKKamala if she knew who those people were. I know Trump would do it.
I wonder it Biden’s team is behind this. *chuckle*
Maybe Joe can get the T-shirt concession at the next debate. Kamala had her turn already.
Or Joe could ask her how many school buses it would have taken to haul all her ancestor’s slaves.
Tribes in OK still had slaves after the Civil War.
boom
She’s certainly more than 1024’s slave owner.
