Trump Sparks Controversy by Questioning Kamala Harris's Black and Indian Heritage
Aug 3, 2024, 09:50 PM
Former U.S. President Donald Trump has sparked significant controversy by questioning the racial identity of Vice President Kamala Harris, suggesting she only recently identified as Black for political advantage. Trump's remarks, made during a speech to the National Association of Black Journalists and on social media, included sharing a photo of Harris in traditional Indian clothing and calling her a 'DEI hire.' These comments have drawn sharp criticism from Democratic leaders and civil rights advocates. The comments are reminiscent of Trump's previous conspiracy theories about former President Barack Obama's heritage. Trump has a history of making incendiary comments about race, and his latest statements have evoked painful memories for many Americans, particularly those who identify as multiracial. The backlash includes accusations that Trump is attempting to redefine the racial and ethnic identities of his political rivals. Some Republicans have distanced themselves from Trump's comments, fearing potential harm to his campaign strategy and voter base.
