Would you like to know more about Kamala Harris than just her political figure? Let’s see how her childhood shaped her into the strong persona of today.

Before being a politician, she was a daughter. Her parents are Donald Harris and Shyamala Gopalan, who met as two immigrant students at the University of California, Berkeley.

Her mom was an Indian who chose to break the arranged marriage tradition and wed Donald Harris, who has Jamaican roots.

They got married while they were still students. When she was pregnant, Shyamala Golapan worked until she went into labor, and Kamala Harris was born in Oakland.

    This is very interesting, and kind of gives you a different insight on Kamala’s life. It sounds like she was brought up right, and she was lead in the right direction

    She not an inspiring dedicated woman. She used her mouth and vagina to get to the top. She did nothing as VO except cackle like a hen in heat. She could have taken control of the border situation but she avoided it like the plague. If she’s elected uSA will become communist nation

    So she was raised a communist by a couple of Berkley nut jobs.

    I don’t understand. Her parents were not black, but you wrote that she was a proud “black” woman. Why is she always portrayed as black? Perhaps just for votes?!
