Vice President Kamala Harris’ father, Donald Harris, once co-authored a treatise in which he argued mass Immigration was dangerous for the United States, particularly for black Americans.

The 1988 book titled ā€œBlack Economic Progress: An Agenda for the 1990sā€ described Immigration as ā€œa particularly serious problem for blacksā€ due to there being fewer jobs available for working-class Americans, according to the New York Post. Donald Harris was reportedly a Marxist economist and currently has a strained relationship with his daughter, the sitting vice president, following his divorce from her mother and a difficult custody battle.

ā€œTrends in international trade have moved against U.S. workers,ā€ the treatise reads, according to the Post. ā€œU.S. Immigration laws have been modified in ways that increase the influx of low-skilled workers, who compete with native-born youths and low-skilled adult workers for low-skilled jobs.ā€

ā€œThis shift has been a particularly serious problem for blacks, who constitute a high proportion of the low-skilled adult workers,ā€ the book continues, according to the Post.

Kamala Harris assumed the unofficial role of ā€œborder czarā€ under the Biden-Harris administration during which there were roughly 8.5 million migrant encounters along the U.S.-Mexico border. The vice president proclaimed in August her new-found support for the building of a wall along the southern border after repeatedly criticizing former President Donald Trump for his stance on Immigration and previously referring to his plan for a wall as ā€œun-American.ā€

An October House Judiciary Committee report revealed that nearly one million illegal migrants currently reside in the U.S. without consequences or fear of deportation under ā€œquiet amnestyā€ due to their immigration cases being closed, terminated or dismissed.

The Harris campaign did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.
