Though, isn't it a shame the left doesn't want to everyone else to collectively dump their "white guilt" as quickly and quietly as Mr. Affleck is being allowed to?

Some people are dumb enough to hate Ben Affleck and think of him as a racist because his grandfather owned slaves.. after all , today we have many blacks hating whites who never owned a slave and never had a relative who owned a slave.
What the hell is the big deal? You had about 1,000 great-ancestors living in the year 1800. What are the chances that one of them was a slave-owner? You had a million different ancestors living in 1600, when slavery was common in almost every country in the world, so no matter where you came from there was a slave owner in your family tree.
In my case, I know for a fact, through DNA evidence, that I am descended from a man whose will is online for everyone to read, naming the 27 "negroes" that he left to each of his heirs, when he died in 1802.
The only thing to be ashamed of is the fact that I owe allegiance to the last country in the western hemisphere in which free people finally abolished slavery -- a country whose citizens took up arms twice in wars to defend slavery in its last gasp.
Americans think it is shameful to be of Mexican ancestry, yet the US went to war against Mexico, which had abolished slavery, in order to re-introduce slavery into Mexican territory. How much do you wanna bet that Affleck wouldn't want you to know if he had Mexican ancestors, either -- something one should be proud of, if slavery is an issue in your background.
I thought owning slaves was racism? That is a topic talked about a lot in this forum but it could be in that forum as well. I thought it was hypocritical for the topic to be censored as well. It should be talked about.
Having the hypocrites that support the political cause, exposed for who they are and their own shame in life.
Wear it with a badge of honor, with an educational experience in oppression far behind us.
I own a slave.... She gets her freedom, in a year.
She earned it.
Hope you're not talking about a wife because you'll probably be paying reparations for life!
