Earlier this week, LeVar Burton learned he is a descendant of a Confederate soldier.
You can't even make this up.

The look on his face ... priceless. This is what schadenfreude would actually look like if you could somehow bottle it up and sell it.
Long tradition of Democrats in family.

Once a Democrat, always a Democrat.
From Fox News:
Actor LeVar Burton was in disbelief after learning he descended from a White Confederate soldier on Tuesday's episode of "Finding Your Roots."
The PBS documentary show uses written ancestries and DNA research to discover the long-lost family histories of prominent guests.
Show host and historian Henry Louis Gates Jr. revealed to Burton that his family had harbored a deep secret for generations. The man he thought was his great-great-grandfather was not actually genetically matched to him. His great-grandmother, Mary Sills, was actually descended from a White man named James Henry Dixon.
"Were you expecting that? Did you have any idea you had a White, direct ancestor?" host Gates asked Burton.
The horror!
Not only is his ancestor white, but a Confederate soldier.
Hrm.
Scott Adams with the perfect response:
How much does he owe himself in reparations? https://t.co/u2Z7cnD2Tl

We can only hope this didn't open up some space-time continuum somewhere.

This is exactly why reparations is a nonsense idea.

Forcing innocent people to pay for the sins of their ancestors is stupid. Maybe Burton will figure it out now?
We're not counting on it.
