Thanks for posting.
Exactly zero places in the article is she called black or African. Like Trump said in the earlier FR post, for a while Kamala presented herself only as Indian and not black or anything else.

Yep now she pretends to be black just to suit her needs..just like now she comes out and says she is against EVERY SINGLE THING she was 3 1/2 yrs ago, now she is against all of her former beliefs..she is an empty suit, an empty vessel who doesn’t have a rational thought in her head that is what is truly scary

Thanks for finding this. I've been trying to find the timeline on her racial identification. Her mom was Indian, she was raised in an Indian home and family. The article you found here shows her identifying as Indian-American when she went to the Senate. I'm guessing that her 2020 run for president was her first identification as black.
Is she Indian-Jamaican-American or Indian-Jamaican-African American? I have a hard time seeing her has African-American as that is traditionally descendants of American slaves, which she is not. IIRC Collin Powell was of Jamaican descent, somewhere, maybe his autobiography, he discussed the difference for him not having that family history of slavery.

Ha.
Like Gershwin’s song from Porgy and Bess “a woman is a sometimes thing.”
Warren now a seasoned, esteemed icon of feminism and wokeism.
Similar to that Rachel Dolezal who pretended to be black and was found out to not be black, things change.

Indian-American ≠ American Indian. Of course the latter designation has fallen out of favor as has Indian-dot and Indian-feather.

I have a hard time seeing her has African-American …
I know of only two African Americans. The first is Dr. Ahunna Obwubunka-Anyim, a General Practitioner from Nigeria, now a citizen. The second is Elon Musk.
