Would you make the same rationale if Clarance Thomas made that ad instead of Kamala?
It would be weird she Thomas do it because he comes off like hates black people and black culture altogether.
But if I saw him repeating a Kendrick Lamar lyrics I won't think it was a big ddeal.
He's black, but he doesn't carry himself that way (regardless of how terrible of a person he is) and neither does she.
This is utter ********
Clarence Thomas is hostile to the basic civils rights of all black people. He is hostile to anti-discriminations laws. He is hostile to economic policies that would benefit black people.
Kamala Harris and Thomas have opposite views on nearly every major issue facing black America.
Equating them seems like an unserious argument
Why does Kamala Harris not carry herself as a black person? You have not explained this.
Again, this is pandering on her part. She's no different than any other white democrat that tries to court the minority vote by code switching and throwing out pop culture references.
Yes she is different, Kamala Harris is a damn black woman.
I'm sorry, but this sounds silly.
She is a black person that like black culture. She is fundamentally different that a white democrat that is trying to find a way to relate to black people.
Where are people getting this black people are not black nonsense from? Kendrick?
And btw, the BET awards has nothing to do with real hip-hop. That was a straight up minstrel show on display for the world to see.
Spare me these respectability politics, and what qualifies as "real hip hop"
BET Awards as a bad reputation because of their low quality production. I get that but you doing too much.
You really trying to defend her putting on a "Black" accent? Come on brah! That was a major violation. She could have read that passage without doing that. And no one in that audience would have liked her any less.
I said if you have a problem with it is fine. I don't have an issue with a black person being upset by it.
What I am saying that you want to ignore the context of the speech. She didn't need to do the accent but you seem so put off at it you handwave what she is saying.
This is not the example you chose to originally use. Like the hot sauce thing was completely made up in your head
Sure thing! I don't like Hillary or Kamala. I think they both have and will cost the democrats the presidential election.
Hillary Clinton became the nominee because black voters wanted her to be the nominee, she beat Bernie in 2016 because of the black vote in the primary.
Her being the candidate is what black voters wanted. Or did you forget about that?
Kamala Harris is not costing Democrats anything. She is not on the top of the ballot, she is not running against Trump, Biden is. Biden is the one struggling right now, not her. So if Dems lose in November it will be mainly on Biden, not who his VP is.
And I am starting to get the idea that you dislike these women for other reasons. Especially Harris
