With apologies to breitbart.com’s Kristina Wong for how much of it I have lifted, here is the key section of her revealing – and debunking – article describing the main years of Kamala Harris’s supposed “middle class” upbringing:
Harris was bused to the Thousand Oaks Elementary School in the wealthier North Berkeley area. As she wrote in her memoir:
I only learned later that we were part of a national experiment in desegregation, with working-class black children from the flatlands being bused in one direction and wealthier white children from the Berkeley hills bused in the other. At the time, all I knew was that the big yellow bus was the way I got to school.
However, Harris was not like other “working-class black children” in her neighborhood.
Before Harris took part in the busing program, she actually attended kindergarten at a private school called the Berkwood School, according to The Berkeleyside. According to the school’s website, tuition was $29,800 for the 2023-2024 school year.
It was also around this time that Harris was taking ballet lessons from a world-famous Russian ballerina named Madame Bovie at her 1805 Grove Street studio in North Berkeley — which The Berkeleyside reported was only about a mile away from Harris’s mother’s apartment.
And according to USA Today and The Berkeleyside, Harris and her sister would spend weekends and summers with their father in the nearby city of Palo Alto — one of the richest and most exclusive zip codes in America and known as the “birthplace of Silicon Valley.” It was also not very diverse. In 2010, it had less than a one-percent black population.
Harris and her sister would also take “frequent visits” to Jamaica, where their father came from a privileged family of former slaveowners. They would also take trips to Chennai, India, to visit her mother’s family.
Harris has minimized the role her father played in her upbringing, writing in her memoir that he “remained a part of our lives.” Meanwhile, she played up the role her mother had, writing, “it was really my mother who took charge of our upbringing. She was the one most responsible for shaping us into the women we would become.”
According to reports, Harris’s mother — despite not being black — deliberately immersed her children in black culture.
Historian Charles Wollenberg told the San Francisco Gate that Harris’s mother “introduced the kids to their Indian family and heritage but primarily raised them as members of Berkeley’s highly politicized Black community,”
The Berkeleyside reported that Harris’s mother would also bring them to Rainbow Sign, a black cultural arts center that would “help shape her political imagination.”
The Oaklandside reported Harris and her sister were “enfolded into their parents’ community of intellectuals and activists,” where she grew up listening to them discuss politics and literature, according to her own memoir.
This immersion abruptly ended, however, when Harris was about 12, and her mother got a job teaching at the Jewish General Hospital at McGill University, one of Canada’s top universities, and they moved to Montreal, Canada.
Harris Lived in One of the Most Upscale Neighborhoods in Montreal
In Montreal, Harris lived in one of the most upscale neighborhoods, with homes worth more than a million dollars, according to exclusive reporting by Breitbart News Deputy Political Editor Emma-Jo Morris. There was no racial hostility in Montreal, Morris reported.
Harris spent the next approximately six years in Canada, first attending a French-language primary school called Notre-Dame-des-Neiges, which according to the school’s website, is in a “beautiful neighborhood.”
Next, Harris would attend the alternative public school Fine Arts Core Elementary School, located near the McGill University campus. She would then attend and graduate from Westmount High School, one of the top public high schools in Montreal.
It was only about a year after they moved to Montreal, when Harris was about 13 years old, that her mother purchased her first home back in Oakland.
Harris has said her mother saved for “many years” for a down payment on the home, which she described as “a one-level dark-gray house on a cul-de-sac, with a shingled roof.”
However, what Harris has not said was that the home was located in the hills of Oakland by a golf course — one of the wealthiest and most beautiful areas of Oakland. That three-bedroom, two-bathroom home is now worth an estimated $914,881, according to a posting on Redfin.
After graduating from Westmount High School in 1981, Harris then attended Vanier College in Canada — likely paying the higher international student rate — before enrolling in Howard University in Washington, DC, in 1982.
Does that look like a typical “middle class” upbringing to you?
It’s not enough that I can’t find anyone who is able to tell me Kamala Harris’s accomplishments. She isn’t even capable of lying well.
The only reason she has gotten away with it so far is media complicity (which, disgustingly enough, she and other members of her party apparently can always count on).
But, then again, who cares about accomplishments and honesty. No issue, right? Let’s forget the whole thing, make her Commander-In-Chief of our armed forces and give her the nuclear codes….along with veto power over congress. That makes perfect sense, right?
