Kamala Harris descended from notorious Irish slave owner: ‘Not a nice fellow’
New York Post–Vice President Kamala Harris descended from an infamous Irish slave owner who actively worked against abolition.
The presidential hopeful’s paternal great-grandmother, Christiana Brown, is a descendant of Hamilton Brown, “who is on the record as plantation and slave owner and founder of Brown’s Town, a town in Jamaica,” Harris’ father, Stanford economist Donald Harris, wrote in the Jamaica Globe in 2019.
Donald Harris, 85, was born in Brown’s Town, the vice president noted in her 2019 book, “The Truths We Hold: An American Journey.”
