Ben Affleck Requested His Slave Owner Ancestor Be Censored From PBS' 'Finding Your Roots'

[MostReal]

But that would open up a whole can of worms. You know how many families, and corporations, got money off the back of black slavery?

It would change everything if that happened. I doubt that would ever happen, at least within the mainstream.

Black Wall street was worth 5 million in the 1920s said it'd be worth billions now
No telling how much slavery is worth since it was the foundation of the economy

Yall some dumb nikkas

Or maybe he did it out of respect for his minority fans that might be watching

dont try to reason with these fake ass militants

I don't get why people do this. Its your ancestors not you. I'm white and my family on both sides immigrated from europe around WW1. But even if my family were slave owners I wouldn't censor it, I'd want to show it for how fukked up it is. If he didn't ask for it to be censored it wouldn't be a reflection on him IMHO.

Stunts like this don't help you save face.

I feel you brother

Peace

You people uh?

Well, imo, slave owner ancestors or not, is the same.

I'm not sure why he'd be dishonest, it's nothing to complain about.

You can't be upset that people arent saying it's a good thing he lied.

You have zero credibility anyway because u say coli militant
Peace

Maybe he doesn't feel condemnation and instead feels appreciation for his privilege of benefiting off the backs of blacks? Liberals are undercover racist.
