Revealed: Michelle Obama's WHITE distant cousins... and how the First Lady's great-great-great grandmother had a relationship with a slave owner's son
Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...#ixzz1yIbnpSah Two silver-haired white women in Georgia are the distant cousins of Michelle Obama, an African American whose decedents were black slaves. A new book reveals that the First Lady's great-great grandfather was born to a slave on a small Georgia plantation and her master's white son. The tale of Mrs Obama's long-lost relatives, which neither family ever talked about, shows that racial identity is even more complicated than most Americans realize. Diverse: The Obamas are cited as being the first black family in the White House, but their ancestors are a diverse mix of white Europeans, black Africans and American Indians. |
