The hosts discuss research popularized by Dinesh D'Souza regarding Kamala Harris's ancestry. The claim suggests Harris is a descendant of Hamilton Brown, a prominent slave owner in Jamaica. They also note her mother's background in the high-ranking Brahmin caste in India. The segment highlights the tension between these historical facts and Harris's public political persona.
Karen Hunter speculates that Kamala Harris's mother must have been from a lower caste in India because she married a Black man. This is debunked by the fact that her mother was a Brahmin, the highest caste. Furthermore, Dinesh D'Souza and Harris's own father have noted the family's descent from Hamilton Brown, one of the largest slave owners in Jamaica. The hosts mock Hunter for her lack of research on the VP candidate's actual heritage.
