Hours after former US President and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump questioned Vice President Kamala Harris‘s ethnicity during an interaction at the National Association for Black Journalists (NABJ) on Wednesday, far-right commentator Laura Loomer shared Harris’ birth certificate, which lists her mother’s ethnicity as “Caucasian.”
Loomer’s post seemed to support Trump’s claim that Harris, who is currently leading him in five of seven battleground states according to a recent Bloomberg poll, is not Black.Harris’s mother, Shyamala Gopalan, was an Indian-American biomedical scientist, and her father, Donald Harris, is a Jamaican-American professor emeritus at Stanford University.

Fact-checkers, including Snopes, have clarified that birth certificates in California during the 1960s often did not specify the child’s race, and Harris’ team reiterated that her mother’s listing as “Caucasian” does not change her identity.

Trump earlier took the stage for an interview at the annual gathering of Black journalists in Chicago in which he began questioning Harris’ racial identity.
“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 of Harris, whose mother was Indian American and whose father is Black.
In response to Trump’s remarks, Harris’ team issued a statement: “The hostility Donald Trump showed on stage today is the same hostility he has shown throughout his life, throughout his term in office, and throughout his campaign for president as he seeks to regain power and inflict his harmful Project 2025 agenda on the American people.”
