Harris criticizes Trump for perpetuating divisive and disrespectful rhetoric on race.


Vice President Kamala Harris delivered remarks at a Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority gathering in Houston on Wednesday, addressing the need for Black women to organize against former President Donald Trump’s false claims about her race. Trump had suggested that Harris only promoted her Indian heritage until she “turned Black.” Harris responded by calling Trump’s remarks divisive and disrespectful, stating that the American people deserve better leadership.

During her speech, Harris emphasized that the differences among Americans should be viewed as a source of strength rather than division. She also highlighted the importance of truthfulness in leadership, contrasting Trump’s hostile responses with the need for honesty and respect for facts. Harris, with a Jamaican father and Indian mother, has a background that reflects the diversity of America.

Harris called on the members of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority to register people to vote and ensure they participate in the upcoming elections, emphasizing the power of organization in effecting change. This event marked Harris’ second speech before one of the “Divine Nine” historically Black fraternities and sororities in recent weeks, with her previous address to Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Inc. in Indianapolis. Harris’s speeches focus on unity, empowerment, and mobilization within the Black community.
