Self/Self-love
“She Is Not Black Enough & Suffers Enough”
“She is an Indian.”
Note: I wrote this story before yesterday’s drama.
Some women around me are furious that VP Kamala Harris is not Black enough or suffers enough as Mrs. Obama and Beyoncé. Fair enough and they have the right to their view.
As we know, all black women can’t worship never-ending suffering and support the same candidate.
“She is an Indian. Her parents are immigrants and from a privileged background. She is married to a white man! “ — An Echo chamber
According to Harris’ biography, all the above are true. All the people complaining about Kamala’s background are not American Indian, and some of them are third-generation immigrants and somewhat privileged.
“She is married to a White man” made me laughed my teeth out. Who doesn’t want to marry a successful attorney who gets things done? Let’s stop lying to ourselves and our friends.
Listen.
Self-awareness matters,
Self-interest matters,
You matter.
