I only mentioned it because I thought Boru's comment of how stupid Janet Jackson was was a little harsh considering the fact that Harris IS lighter-skinned than one would expect. I personally don't care if she's purple under black make-up.
The funniest things about Jackson's comments are 1) her own brother's efforts to appear less black through surgery and skin-bleaching, and 2) her own efforts to appear less black with the nose job, neither of which she mentions at all.
My sis has three children from her interracial marriage. They each have different complexions. They're all beautiful.
I don't give a shit about the races of Harris's parents. Not imputing this to you specifically, but the "reasoning" behind the Republican attacks smacks of the whole quadroon thing. Because if she was a nobody on the street, they'd surely treat her like a black person in America. We both know they'd be thinking "there's some black in the woodpile somewhere". Yet now they're attacking her for not being black.
It's a race card too. Don't give it any oxygen.
