I mean, just going by her skin color, you would assume she is mostly white. Heaven forbid… 🙄

The Salem Witch trials were the result of a mass psychogenic hysteria. I’m sure glad THOSE don’t happen anymore 🤣

I am not American and I am white. I did not grow up with the history of slavery except from books, newspapers, radio, tv, my parents explaining, etc. And, of course, I could and can not understand the concept of someone owning another human being. It is mentioned here that slaves "slaves enjoyed ther new civil rights" in 1865. But weren't hey there already? In your Constitution?

Hes a cutie

Susannah Roote was my seventh great grandmother. Tried and found guilty, she was released for unknown reasons. She was frail and elderly and died soon afterward. She had not attended church regularly, evidently suffered from insomnia (burned candles at night), talked to someone when alone, and flew around her room. We seven seventh generation sisters are proud of our witch DNA.

My greatx10 grandfather was Nathaniel Putnam. Unfortunately, was on board with the land grab until Goodie was accused. Only at that point did he put stop to things.

One blacks know and especially Southern blacks, is when a "white person" has some "black" in their ancestry. I always felt that Clint Black had some black ancestry. I also feel that deep down he felt he had a black ancestor, too.

😢

That was my stripper name back in the day.... Salem.

My ancestor Abigail Dane was convicted and exonerated during the witch trials

she is hebrew

Mario was n is another boarder brother mexico 🇺🇲

Wow! AWESOME. Very-well put.

People are trying to point out that she was more Italian than black but she doesn't look more Italian than black. That's the point.

I want to go on this show so badly. My ancestors are such an integral part of the American story. One side is farming immigrants from Denmark and England and the other side is the Lakota Nation. Half of my family was wrongfully given the land that was stripped from my other half. If Dr. Gates and his team could uncover records from Indigenous Americans from the plains tribes I would be seriously impressed and grateful!

Her shirt is very tasteful. Dionne Warwick believes in being true to her elderly ladies voice by not pushing it as it's in very rusty shape today. Let's offer her praise that she can still sing and attract interest at 85! Beautiful effort ❤

Not funny, appalling and very sad. All the witch stories that were made up. Not your fault because of your ancestor, but probably they were afraid they may be accused themselves. This is all very sick. Salem, MA should be a place of memorial, not a disgusting disneyland of "witches" The Puritan are not what you think. They only believed that they knew the way, and had no problem killing and hurting those that disagreed.

he took it like a champ...

So witch hunting runs in his family

What's really sad is Dionne's ignorance when it comes to slavery and where it really came from, and what makes it worse is Gates' refusal to clarify it, he's just keeping that racism misinformation alive. The truth has been out there for years but the feeling guilty white people from the left coast want to pretend that black people were the only slaves, the Chinese were never slaves, (Who built the railroad feeling guilty white people from the left coast?) The Irish were never slaves, Italians were never slaves, there were no one called Indentured Servants. However, you see, they know EXACTLY what we're talking about, but they want to pretend they don't, they want to say, "But...but...but...we changed sides" THEY'RE the ones who came up with slavery, THEY'RE the ones who came up with the Jim Crow laws, THEY came up with, " "Segregation now, Segregation tomorrow, Segregation forever" And Henry Louis Gates Jr wants to pretend that's exactly how it happened, in fact. I think he actually said on this episode, I'm not 100% percent sure, I'm just doing this from memory, but I think he said that his mom was european, it turns out his dad was totally white, which is typical for those people, they want to embrace their blackness, while denying their whiteness, exactly like the feeling guilty white people from the left coast said about Obama, they want to call him the "First black President" No, he's HALF WHITE, he was raised by his WHITE GRANDPARENTS. They don't mention they're white in any way because they know they'll be called an oreo cookie, they'll be called an "Uncle Tom" and instead of standing up for themselves and being proud of both races, they'll cower, they'll put their tail between their legs and slink away. I say all of this because of a documentary that I just saw of a white missionary who was captured and held for ransom while working in Somalia, Her name was Jessica Buchanan. The thing that she said I will never forget, though I can never find it no matter how hard I look, she described where she was assigned, and it was a location, as she described, was "in between two factions" She said that when she was going in between both, she had to switch convoys, she had to switch vehicles. The reason why that's important is because THAT is EXACTLY how slavery was. One sanction would fight another and when they would win, they would sell their prisoners. THAT is how slavery worked, feeling guilty white people from the left coast, white people weren't just going around randomly kidnapping black people, they were being sold by other black people, kind of like crime nowadays from black people against other black people, they haven't changed for hundreds and hundreds of years, but you want to stick your fingers in your ears and go LALALALALALALALALALALALALA. So what I'm saying is just admit the truth, admit what really happened, stop twisting it around to fit your agenda, you can be totally ashamed of what you did, but stop trying to change history.

Danielovich sounds more like a patronymic than a last name.

I have the same maternal haplogroup... So does Nelson Mandela! I predate are... yeah.. that's dope!

Witches were healers. They saved many lives. The patriarchy was threatened. Not much has changed.

RuPaul is such a sweet, sensitive person. ❤️🥰

My son is 14 and he LOVES Danny, I hope every generation continues to recognize this great actor's talent and kindness.

The collective trauma that lives inside of us must be healed.

As a Xhosa, it's always so cool to me when people find stuff like this out.

My people? 😄 that's getn a little tired to hear. You know she stays far away from most of 'her people' and rubs elbows with the wht bosses who pull the strings.

RIP

Michael looks more and more like his father Kirk, as he ages.

How many hot dogs did they pay her for this?

And he still got some property, that's resilience!

I love her sincerity and awe.

Generation after generation of exploitation!

Everybody was not black! What total nonsense!

Would you all call Liz Tyler, the daughter of Stephen Tyler of Aerosmith a Black girl also because tbey have a distant Mulato ancestor that was a drummer in the civil war? Btw. Dont claim people who dont claim you!!

somebody got pregnant

This interesting. My Great Grandmother, Esther Dutch ELLs, was imprisoned for witchcraft in Salem. Our ancestors were in the same place at the same time. Hundreds of years later Jeff Daniel’s and I attend the same college, Central Michigan, not that many years apart.

I’m not a celebrity, but I wish someone would do a deep dive into my history. So interesting.

Beautiful lady ♥️♥️

Paternal Scientific Adam is actually Pedro Pascal

Love your channel! Would love a return subscription - I watch Eagles, tell stories about my life, and support LSU and the SPTV Foundation & Community! p🦅🐅👽

I think a great mirror of this in today's political world is that ultra maga people are in that cult to take a break from their own consciousness'

Lupita is Humanity’s mother. 👩🏿‍🦲
