Joe Biden promised to nominate a "black" woman as his Vice President in 2020. Now whether or not you think this qualifies as a DEI hire, Joe Biden does. For instance, in a speech this past June, Joe Biden said: “The values of diversity, equality, inclusion [DEI] are literally—and this is not kidding —the core strengths of America. That's why I'm proud to have the most diverse administration in history. And it starts at the top with the Vice President.” Now that we've settle this issue, let's look at a couple of definitions.

First, the dictionary defines "Black" as "belonging to or denoting a human group having dark-colored skin, especially of sub-Saharan African ancestry." Second, the dictionary defines "African American" as "a Black American of African descent." According to these two definitions, Kamala Harris is neither Black nor African American, since her father was a Jamaican, which the dictionary defines as "a person of Jamaican descent," and her late mother was from India. Now, there is nothing wrong with being Black, African American, Jamaican, or Indian, nor is there any reason to be ashamed of being any of the above. However, there is something wrong with both "racial passing," which Wikipedia defines as passing oneself off as a member of a different race than one's actual race, and with "Racial Imposter Syndrome," which occurs when a person's internal racial identity doesn't match what others see. 

It was the Chicago Tribune reporter Don Terry who wrote, way back in 2004, that Barack Obama was "a Rorschach test"; that is, an ink blot that people saw to be whatever they wanted him to be. For instance, America still sees him today as our first African American president, despite the fact that Barack Obama was not African American⏤"a Black American of African descent"⏤but biracial, as much White as he is Black. Obama's father was an African, a Kenyan, which makes him part Black, but not part African American. His mother was a white woman from Kansas, which makes Barack Obama part White, but again not an African American. Now, once again, there is nothing wrong with Barack Obama being biracial, part Black and part White, but there is something wrong with pretending to be neither, but African American instead. 

There is nothing racist about pointing out the clear facts of the biracial ancestries of Barack Obama and Kamala Harris. Neither one of them, in my opinion, have any reason whatsoever to be ashamed of their biracial ancestries. However, they both are guilty of racial passing. Obama passes himself off as an African American, which he is not, according to the dictionary's definition of an African American, and Kamala Harris passes herself off as both Black and African American, when, according to the dictionary, she is neither. Now, the big question is, "Why?" Are they ashamed of their biracial ancestries or is it all about political expediency in these divisive days of identity politics? You know the answer to this question, as well as I do; and you also know why anyone speaking the truth about any of this is going to be roundly and readily condemned by Democrats as a despicable racist, despite the fact that it's not the truth-teller who has a problem with Obama and Harris' race, but Obama, Harris, and all of their supporters, not to mention their "non-racist" and "tolerant" political party.
