Anderson Cooper
A rule of thumb is: where there is old money, you will find some connection to slavery. So of course it wasnt hard to determine that Anderson Cooper was connected, in a familial way, to slavery. His bloodline is tied to the Vanderbilts, one of the richest families in American history. Coopers great-great-grandfather, Cornelius Vanderbilt who was also Coopers cousin through inbreeding was a tycoon who built his wealth from shipping and railroads. He also owned plantations: one in particular was in Georgetown, S.C., where Michelle Robinson Obamas ancestor Jim Robinson, who was born a slave in 1850, worked.

Jim Robinson was born a slave?!?
I got to start reading the articles and not just the snips.
“who was also Coopers cousin through inbreeding”
I didn’t realize Cooper’s problems went back so far. Explains a lot, though.
No need to imagine it. Obama's Muslim Luo ancestors were slave traders during the time of Queen Victoria. Evidently they were some of the biggest slave traders in the country.
So what? How about a list of people who read Little Black Sambo to their kids?
Thank you for posting this.
You’re welcome. The page has since been updated. I put that excerpt together a few years ago. I need to re-do it.
Wish I had a few, color is unimportant but the yard work and house work is hard to keep up with. (sarcasm for those who couldn’t actually tell).
I’m sick of all this slavery BS... Who sold who to whom is where the anger needs to be pointed and don’t forget indentured servants.. yeah white slavery it happened too but the kicker is it didn’t happen in my lifetime, lesson learned for America but enough is enough.
My great great grandfather cheated at poker.
What about the thousands of BLACK slave owners?
“My story? Okay. It was never easy for me. I was born a poor black child. I remember the days, sittin’ on the porch with my family, singin’ and dancin’ down in Mississippi...”
/LOL
Fascinating!
Here we can go back centuries to find bloodlines and ownership lines in generations of slaves, whilst we can’t even find out where or when Zero was birthed; or even what he was doing the evening that Benghazi was being torched!
How about a list of people who read Little Black Sambo to their kids?
************************
I had that book when I was a kid in the ‘40s.
Amazing, isn’t it, that the racists have banned such books and great movies like “Songs of the South” with Uncle Remus telling stories about Brer Fox, Brer Bear, Brer Rabbit, Tar Baby, etc., all in animation.
I had ancestors who owned slaves. I also had ancestors who immigrated into the Colonies as indentured servants.
My ancestors were Union soldiers. I expect a “thank you” every time I talk to a descendant of a slave. I also demand a “handling charge” for any reparations.
There is slavery still going on in the Caribbean
In Haiti, poor families sell their young, usually daughters, to better off families....these children are called “Restaveks”. These children basically do all the housework, do not go to school, are abused (incl sexually)...and during the earthquake a few years ago...the families that fled did not take their Restaveks with them...left them in the rubble...where some of them died
Blacks enslaving blacks in the Caribbean
To all of this I say, ‘FU Jessie, Al, Opraha, Barry, Mooshelle, and all of the Dim race baiters. Just go to hell, and give me back my great grandfather, who fought and died in the civil war to end slavery in America.’
How can Anderson Cooper even show his face on TV?
He should be so ashamed...;)
Now, let the authors travel to Africa so that they may find the descendants of those tribesmen who enslaved and sold into offshore slavery the ancestors of the authors and the “poor Black folk” of America.
Obama’s White ancestors owned slaves, and his Black African Muslim ancestors SOLD other Blacks INTO slavery. So he is worse than any of the Crackers on the list!
This is so stupid. Cooper is a moronic leftist, but it is just beyond silly to go on about something his ancestors did.
