    What icon kamala Harris has literally done nothing to deserve vp her own party didn't want her to run but the democrats wanted a black woman. She is a cackling heayna and still hasn't even visited the boarder. On memorial day weekend she tweets have a long weekend without mentioning the US soldiers who died. She is an imcompdent fool and doesn't speak for women or black people. So stop with the lies bbc

    I don't understand how the vice president of USA influences mixed races kids around the world specially in India.

    Why should you need somebody (in)famous with the same ethnic blending as you to feel represented? You're reducing yourself and others to race instead of what they stand for. Do you really see yourself represented in someone who laughs at the working class, calls 18-24 stupid, says her greatest qualification for this role is her race and gender and who won't visit the Mexican border to assess the humanitarian crisis? But yes, race is the most important thing…

    I notice the BBC refused to cover her condemning the detention facilities at the border under Trump then laughing when asked if she would visit them now under Biden as the Mexican border is at its worse for 20 years.

    I personally feel everybody life matters. History of White people will always be there and it will not change. But now I feel time has changed and we should believe more in positivity. More they bring Black people more hate will be created i guess. Because their are other race colours people too who feel bullied etc but know one talks about that. So bottom line is..Everybody life matters then just one gender life.

    Where the story on Idris Elbas character in a show not being black enough for British authorities?
    "He doesn't eat enough Caribbean food."

    FACT: Weaklings, non-entities, and mediocrities are threatened by a strong, smart, accomplished woman like Kamala Harris. She is everything her haters wish they were — but don't have the drive, talent, or brains to become.

    Kamala is an American woman whose mother was from India, that's all that is Indian about her. She probably doesn't even understand a language other than English. She herself started acknowledging her 'Indianess' only recently because it's more intersectional. I don't even know why we Indians are going nuts for her.

    Anyone who looks up to Kamala is a complete utter disgrace she does not represent any of the Indian or black ancestry! By far she is more of a opportunistic person who just Ioved to ride on the race cards but do nothing for the people she should represent!

    January 21, 2024 at 8:01 pm

    If you think about it, that's a pretty insulting and ignorant view. And the fact that the BBC has given her a spotlight, they're one and part of the same creature.

Hawk Fire wildfire in Nevada expected to rage for another two days, say officials | BBC News

Published

on



US fire crews have reported progress in their efforts to tackle a large wildfire menacing the city of Reno, Nevada – saying the blaze is about a quarter contained.

The Hawk Fire, which began on Saturday, had spread over 15,000 acres by Monday, firefighters said.

Evacuation orders remain in place for 23,000 people, though other residents have now been allowed to return to their homes. Tens of thousands of other residents have been told to be ready to leave at any moment.

Officials are concerned that gusts of wind could drive the flames towards more homes. Unfavourable weather conditions are forecast for the next two days, meaning the fire could continue to burn during that timeframe.
