[Lovely-Day-For-A-Guinness]

...A History of World Societies documents a total of 6,000 Negro slave owners in the U.S. for the year 1840 [p. 846]. The 1850 and 1860 Slave Schedules do not identify slave owners by race; the individual names of slave owners must be searched in the U.S. Federal Census to identify the individual's race...

"How does that make you feel," Henry Louis Gates, he of beer summit fame, and who asks every honky when shocked and shamed to discover a link to slavery in their family tree.

My family’s been here almost 400 years.

Nobody ever owned slaves.

Gee, maybe I should run for office...?

Bwah hah hah hah hah!
