Kamala Harris, the first African-American woman of Californian descent to serve in the Senate, is now also the first person of Indian descent to appear on a presidential ticket, an action that has earned her a series of criticisms and lawsuits.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Listen to this note:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Kamala Harris<\/a> was nominated <\/span>by President Joseph Biden to be the Democratic Party's candidate for president of the United States, from that moment on, an endless number of opinions for and against were unleashed, the most controversial being those of the Republican candidate, Donald Trump, who has attacked her with racist and sexist comments.<\/span><\/p>\n

This was pointed out by sociologist Dr. Anna Lee Mraz <\/span>on the radio show\u00a0<\/span>Hecho en California<\/span><\/a>\u00a0in collaboration with Peninsula 360 Press, where he recalled that Harris is a 59-year-old woman with a long career, in addition to being the first woman in the history of the United States to hold the position of vice president, marking a milestone by being <\/span>the first African-American and South Asian-American woman elected to the post after being named Biden's running mate in the 2020 election.<\/span><\/p>\n

She was the first African-American woman from California to serve in the Senate, and is now also the first person of Indian descent to appear on a presidential ticket, a move that has earned her a series of criticisms and lawsuits based on false information, Mraz noted.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe attacks are racist, sexist and sexualized, with Trump calling her crazy and stupid, attacking her ability as a woman,\u201d Mraz added.<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition, she said, mental health conditions have been used to attack and humiliate her as a woman, generating the idea of superiority, as if \u201cnormal\u201d is the most capable.<\/span><\/p>\n

In this regard, she pointed out that these attacks use the term \u201ccrazy\u201d as a socially powerful tool to silence women.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWomen who are strong like Kamala are immediately disqualified when the word crazy is used as a strong signal,\u201d the sociologist commented.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

On the other hand, she explained that her ability to be president is being attacked in terms of DEA (diversity, equity and inclusion) hiring, which seeks to generate the idea that she is not capable, that she is not qualified for the position and was only taken into account based on her race and gender, regardless of her knowledge and her great work.<\/span><\/p>\n

Manuel Ortiz, a sociologist and journalist, added that in 2017 a group of 35 mental health professionals warned that Donald Trump was not capable of being the leader of a nation and, nevertheless, he completed his term.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAt the time, there was talk about Trump\u2019s mental health and specialists said he was not fit. Now Kamala is being attacked without conclusive evidence, since any person has the right to take care of their mental health and that does not make them any less capable of fulfilling their duties,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n
