"The View" host Sunny Hostin was shocked to discover her family's hidden history in a new episode of the PBS documentary show, "Finding Your Roots."

The documentary show researches prominent figures' family histories through historical records and DNA testing. On the February 6 episode, show host Henry Louis Gates Jr. revealed one of Hostin's ancestors on her maternal side was likely involved in the slave trade in colonial Spain.

Her third great-grandfather also "owned at least one human being," he said.

[DallasBiff]

Ruh Roh, she has a bloodline to a slave holder.

[lowbridge]

I guess she owes reparations to someone now.

[Tennessee Nana]

My ancestor was a slave in MASS

Sonny write me a very big check !!!

[Tell It Right]

So does Kamala. That hasn’t stopped her from grifting for the oppressed.

[Yo-Yo]

Make her pay reparations, STAT!

[Opinionated Blowhard]

She should pay herself $1 million in reparations. She’d be rich!!!!

[wildbill]

Yeah, all her inherited wealth and skills are because of her family’s slaveholder past. Sackcloth and ashes for you, you filthy racist.

[Cowgirl of Justice]

So, does that mean SHE has to PAY reparations instead of receiving it?

[IYAS9YAS]

Hahahahahahahaha. Deep breath. Hahahahaha.

[bigbob]

During the break she turned to Whoppi and asked “So, how much?”

[Clutch Martin]

Heck, I might even have some of that Genghis Khan DNA in my blood. It doesn’t really matter to me. It really doesn’t. I’ve heard about the Native American roots, Eastern European stuff which is where the Mongol hoard comes in... cossack, bohunk, austro-hungarian Empire roots.. some of my ancestors were Slavic, which was slaves for white folk.. do I care? I just want to be all I can be in this lifetime because this is the lifetime that counts for me and anybody else reading this.

The other stuff? At this point in time a sizable chunk of the human race is mongrel. Deal with it.

Obama’s mother’s family owned slaves too.

[God luvs America]

Report: Obama’s kin owned slaves

[Red Badger]

There were blacks who owned slaves in the South..................

[Candor7]

Hostin is a shareholder in the Great Dem plantation where slaves are bought and sold for a few government handouts such as food stamps and free abortion swervices.

By deep radical left connections, Hostin is being true to genetic inheritance of oppressively keeping black freedom in check.

If you want to go back 200-250 years or so, its very common to find such an ancestor. I have several.

The first confirmed salve in the US was a white man owned by a black man.

[ComputerGuy]

There are some slave papers in my family. A cousin showed them to me back in 1990. These words are all I can remember:
The African girl Millie and her increase

[BigEdLB]

She needs to immediately open the checkbook and write Whoopi a check for reparations

I know, but the irony is that she was so rightous and pontificating how white people are so bad, she got slapped in the face.
