This explains the missing bedsheets.

Not as ironic as wearing a spray painted hair clip for a visor for several years.

Freed blacks in the South also owned slaves. They could even find a light complected slave and buy her as a wife. Blacks also fought for the Confederacy. History isn’t as simple as liberals want to make out to have been.

I like ‘Finding Your Roots.’ Guess I can skip this week’s show. I’m used to old style TV show watching.

This from the LA Times article: "Dixon was a defender of slavery "

Woah. No. Dixon was a defender of North Carolina - his home. There is zero evidence that he was a "defender of slavery" or that this motivated him in the slightest. Not just the majority but the VAST majority of Southern Whites did not own so much as one slave and had never owned so much as one slave. They fought for the same reason people fight whenever a hostile foreign army invades someone else's land.

ā€œI often wonder about white men of the period and how they justify to themselves their relations with Black women, especially those in an unbalanced power dynamic,ā€ Burton remarked.

How did they justify it Levar? They justified it in the same way that men in a more powerful position have always justified having relations with women who were much poorer or in an inferior social position. Think of the boss having an affair with his secretary or the rich old guy having a relationship with a hot young (and penniless) girl. That's a story as old as humanity.

My family comes from Kentucky (Mother’s side) and Pennsylvania (Father’s side). There were probably racists on both sides long ago. I’m not responsible for that, just as Levar is not responsible for a great-great-great uncle or whatever being a Confederate soldier.

Disney will remake Gone With The Wind starring Le Var Burton and Beyonce and the maid will be Britney Spears.

The author of the article:

Emily St. Martin

Emily St. Martin is an entertainment reporter on the Fast Break Desk.

Before joining the Los Angeles Times, she contributed to the New York Times, InStyle, Cosmopolitan, NBC, Vice, Los Angeles Magazine and the Southern California News Group.

She also previously worked at the Hollywood Reporter.

In 2022, she won third place for best news feature with the L.A. Press Club.

St. Martin has a bachelorā€™s degree in journalism from the University of La Verne and a masterā€™s in creative nonfiction from UC Riverside.


Not saying what she wrote is untrue. But am calling attention to her background.

This reminds me that Michelle Obama’s ancestors owned slaves and none of mine ever did.

I think her and Levar need to pay for the sins of their fathers.
