Former US President Donald Trump attended a conference with Black journalists in Chicago on Wednesday where he falsely claimed that Vice President Kamala Harris had previously identified only as Indian before "turning Black."
"I didn't know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black and now she wants to be known as Black. So, I don't know, is she Indian or is she Black?" Trump said at the annual convention of National Association of Black Journalists conference (NABJ).
In reality, Harris - the daughter of a Jamaican father and an Indian mother - has always embraced her heritage.
She attended Howard University, a prestigious historically Black university, and was also a member of the historically Black sorority Alpha Kappa Alpha.
As a US senator, Harris was part of the Congressional Black Caucus, where she supported legislation aimed at strengthening voting rights and reforming policing.
