Letitia James, Karine Jean-Pierre and Kimberly Jean-Pierre
Did we know that Karine Jean-Pierre was Letitia James' campaign manager, when James ran for New York City Public Advocate? Did we know that KJP was, according to BlackPast, born in Fort-de-France, Martinique? Martinique is in the French West Indies. The Haitian Roundtable tells us that Jean-Pierre's parents were Haitian immigrants to Martinique. Spectrum News (NY1) tells us that the Jean-Pierre family moved from Martinique to Queens Village, when Karine was 5 years old. Anon got a real spooky feeling upon seeing the information on Karine's State Dept. page.

Karine's brother - Christopher Jean-Pierre
"The Jean-Pierre family moved to Queens Village when Karine was five. Their father was a professor in Haiti but took a job as taxi driver here — their mom was a home health aide. Both worked long hours and Karine often took care of her younger siblings."
