5. Inspired by her mother to run for president
Her mother passed more than a decade ago, but she remains a source of inspiration for Kamala. She shared that her mom’s mental set was the one that inspired her to run for president, remembering her mom’s straight face when she was coming home complaining about something and her, “Well, what are you going to do about it?”
6. Kamala Harris’s Confidence
Because she grew up in a multicultural family with an Indian mom and a Jamaican dad, her identity led to comparisons with Barack Obama, who was also biracial with his mom from Kansas and his dad from Kenya.
Unlike Obama, Harris always had confidence in who she was when it came to her roots. She answered this question about identity struggles some time ago, saying that she always felt comfortable with who she is and simply considers herself an American.
When she first ran for public office, she did not like and didn’t try to define herself in ways that fit into people’s categories. She said her point was “I am who I am. I’m good with it. You might need to figure it out, but I’m fine with it.”
She shares in her autobiography that she was raised to be proud of her cultural heritage, and even if her mom was Indian, Shyamala was aware that she was raising Black daughters. Kamala says that she and her sisters were raised to be confident and proud Black women.
Here is where you can find her autobiography book, The Truths We Hold: An American Journey, also available in Kindle edition.
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
bigger Lier than Joe & stupider than a communist & uglier than a Clinton. Did I mention smells real bad?
Communists, wouldn’t vote her for dog catcher

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
She is not African American nor is she black.
They can say what they will about his Jewish faith but Kommie backs the Palestinians their causes and Hamas. What kind of a Jew does that make her husband???
I hope she let best president won in the November election to make this country America great again . love Shannon Smith
So she was raised a communist by a couple of Berkley nut jobs.
Zero interviews and a pathological liar.
Nope
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?!
Kamala’s father claims he wasn’t black.
It kind of explains her radicalized politics….not good for America.
