NEW YORK (AP) -- Genealogists have found that civil rights activist the Rev. Al Sharpton is a descendent of a slave owned by relatives of the late Sen. Strom Thurmond, a newspaper reported Sunday.

It's funny as hell how big a deal they are making about a connection so slim.

Must be a slow news day.

I dont know i can see getting upset over your great grand pappy owned my great grand pappy. People really have been killed over less. Reminds me of an episode of HOMICIDE life on the streets I saw one time.

well I'm sure that they're making such a big deal out of it due to the fact that both subjects are or have been extremists on either side. Silly that it's even news though. Hey, ancestors of white people owned ancestors of black people. Shocking!

It reminds me of that episode of saved by the bell where Jessie finds out that her ancestors were slave owners.

I wonder if I can find a youtube of that >.<
