What's going on this thread? Can we blame him for covering it up in this era of everything-and-everyone-is-racist-give-me-reparations?

Obviously, you can't apologize for the all the sins of your grand daddy but i could definitely see it being a part of my personal history thag I would not want to publicly acknowledge... How would he look if he came out a trashed his family's patriarch ?

Well the premise of the show is supposedly on truth and discovery. Secondly, the degree to which this was covered up, speaks to the the filter in which our news and info is presented.

Oh good fricking god man.
Just because a small minority of slave owners were black, and many slave traders were black doesn't mean slave owners weren't mostly racist.

Don't be an idiot

I think the guy is a prick but how is he bedeviled for that? are you rewriting the story as him having part of that?

What's the big deal? Had a White Male Conservative asked, I'm sure he would have been granted the same favor.

I would love to know your family history. My guess is it's littered with scoundrels and scallywags.
