re: #7 Belafon
The current “Finding Your Roots” has Roseanne Cash. Come to find out her fourth great grandmother was black, a slave. The story looks like her future husband gave the county clerk in Alabama $200 and the clerk basically would have said at that much money “looks white to me.”
To be honest, when I first saw photos of her Mom, I thought she was a Black woman. I’m not surprised she has Black ancestry. I was more surprised that Johnny Cash had Black ancestry as well.
