(Not The Bee) Oh, would you look at that? The mainstream media is race-baiting again!
Who woulda guessed!
A Maryland woman knew her ancestors had risen from slavery in middle Tennessee.
What she didn’t know: a direct descendant of the people who enslaved her ancestors is a U.S. congressman today. https://t.co/E4mUcR99HI

What’s missing from the headline? How about: “Who cares?”
I mean, seriously, why the heck do we care that someone who has nothing to do with slavery once enslaved someone else’s parents? Unless you want to start a race war or something.
How does this not just stir up unnecessary racial hostility?
So what? A successful black woman’s family was once owned by the long-dead ancestors of a man who had nothing to do with slavery.
(One has to wonder if this would even be a story if the congressman were a Democrat.)
This is apparently a part of a series on NBC meant to dig up the ancient past and create hatred where none previously existed, just for fun and to make everyone mad.
Or, at least that’s what it seems like they’re trying to do.
