In her defense - her mother knew that being brown she’d be regarded as black and so, encouraged her in black culture.
I seriously doubt that, her Indian mother raising her in Canada .... is going to have ZERO Experience with ' Black ' Culture
Especially AMERICAN Black Culture
Remember when Harris was 1st elected to Congress she claimed her INDIAN Heritage as the 1st Indian senator ... NOT Black
and she is 1/4 Jamaican .... here Father was 1/2 J and 1/2 Irish .... Jamaican ain't American African Amerioc an
Jamaica is an
island country in the Caribbean. The country had a population of 2,825,352 in 2023, the
fourth largest in the region.
Jamaica's annual population growth rate stood at 0.08% in 2022. As of 2023, 68.9% of Jamaicans were Christians in 2011, predominantly
Protestant.
A more precise study conducted by the local University of the West Indies - Jamaica's population is more accurately 76.3% African descent or Black, 15.1% Afro-European ( or locally called the Brown Man or Browning Class) , 3.4% East Indian and Afro-East Indian, 3.2% Caucasian, 1.2% Chinese and 0.8% Other.[4]
Wealth or Economic Power in Jamaica is disproportionately held by the White Jamaicans, Chinese[East Asians] Jamaicans and the Afro-European (or locally called the Brown Man or Browning Class) - i.e. despite being a minority group(s) (less than 25% of the country's population) controls most of the country's wealth.

According to the official Jamaica
Population Census of 1970, ethnic origins categories in Jamaica include:
Black (Mixed);
Chinese;
East Indian;
White; and 'Other' (e.g.: Syrian or
Lebanese).
[1] Jamaicans who consider themselves Black (according to the United States'
One-drop rule definition of Black), made up 92% of the working population. Those of non-African descent or mixed race made up the remaining 8% of the population.
