Vice President Kamala Harris is a light skinned Jamaican-Indian woman married to a white man and if it weren’t for the fact that she’s a Democrat, the news media would be savagely attacking her for both until November.
Rest assured that if Harris were running for president as a Republican, calling her a “D.E.I. hire” would be the kindest thing printed about her in The New York Times. The more relentlessly vicious commentary would focus on her “proximity to whiteness” and her “light-skinned privilege.” There’s no question she’d be called a white supremacist.
We know this because it’s what Democrats and the media do all the time to black conservatives and Republicans.
In 2014, Democrat Rep. Bennie Thompson of Mississippi called Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas an “uncle Tom” who “doesn’t like being black.”
In January 2023, MSNBC’s Joy Reid suggested GOP Rep. Byron Donalds of Florida was nominated by his Republican colleagues to be House Speaker as a “diversity statement.”
Under the headline, “White men must be stopped: The very future of mankind depends on it,” the left-wing Salon in 2015 published an article by white male author Frank Joyce claiming then-Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson supports “white supremacist ideology.”
Talbert Swan, president of the NAACP, America’s premier race hustling operation, in April 2021 referred to GOP Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina as “Uncle Tim.” Swan further described Scott as a “cunning white supremacy apologist, who demonstrated his buck dancing skills in front of the entire world.”
