people have to wonder where does Sunny hwon get her opinions like you said it's obviously from her husband uh she has to tell her her what to say on The View because without it she's got nothing up there she's not very bright so but the problem with her is that she went full racist hoston one of the View's most outspoken and provocative figures was caught up in an ironic incident she is well known for her daring thoughts on identity politics and racial reparations Sunny has built a profession of exposing racial Injustice based on her moral
superiority as a result when she appeared on viewers of PBS's Finding Your Roots a program where celebrities discuss their family history anticipated another case in which Sunny's personal background would reinforce her public perspective given her advocacy or racial Justice you'd think she knows her family background Sunny divulged shocking things on that episode shocking her and the internet Sunny hustin sounds like a town we're in Sunny hustin she was on PBS's Finding Your Roots a show dedicated to researching celebrity ancestry for context Sunny is a staun supporter of reparations is and has made a fortune spewing
nonsense about white privilege and racial Justice Well turns out she's not as oppressed as she claims she is she's actually the descendant of slave owners from a sunny sat across from legendary genealogy Henry Louie Gates Jr anxious to understand the secrets of her history she had no idea that the bombshell that awaited her would utterly upend her world however before we get into the juicy drama be sure to hit the like like button and subscribe to ensure you don't miss any of the most recent Hollywood gossip our ancestors owned slaves not inferior minorities or immigrants
the woman who spent years resisting the legacy of slavery and campaigning for reparations Sunny hoston was astonished and uncomfortable when she realized that her own family had profited directly from the system she had been criticizing wow I'm I'm I'm a little bit in shock I I just always thought of myself as Puerto Rican you know half Puerto Rican I didn't think I was uh my family was originally from Spain and slaveholders yeah so how are you feeling my friend um I just I think it's actually pretty interesting that um my husband and I have shared
Roots yeah so I I do appreciate that um and I think it's great for our children MH to know this information I guess it's a fact of life that uh this is how some people made their living on the back she was plainly having problems comprehending the Revelation as blinked as the professional that she is sunny tried to salvage the moment by murmuring something about how this would be a fascinating nugget for her kids to learn but let's face it the room became silent for a while and she stumbled almost as if the words were
strange to her I didn't suppose my family was originally from Spain or slaveholders in all honesty the harm had already been done and Fox News Greg Goodell swiftly joined in on the fun if irony had a prize Greg just got it straight away introducing his part with a joke that was spoton when the audience realized that Sunny host ancestors had owned slaves it was like learning that a vegan had operated a BBQ restaurant Greg swiftly highlighted the hypocrisy people have to wonder where does Sunny hen get her opinions like you said and it's obviously from
her husband uh she has to tell her her what to say in the view because without it she's got nothing up there she's not very bright so but the problem with her is that she went full racist she injected skin color into a fairly generic Behavior seen in all spouses regardless of of skin color people Mar marry they listen to each other they have something in common with them they share their political views um she just didn't want to upset her husband by saying she she her husband makes her do everything and then she'd have
to accuse him of being a racist because if he told her that this is what white women do then he's a racist Sunny has been willing to criticize others for their earlier transgressions but Greg pointed out an obvious double standard in her own background the next time Sunny uses the race card on the view someone will inform her that at least we are not racist slave owners he made a joke but it wasn't simply for Giggles Greg also questioned Sunny's total lack of responsibility which many found troubling rather than expressing regret or providing a more
detailed study of her family's past Sunny rejected it as a part of life naturally social media erupted as soon as the Revelation was made public many of the reactions on Twitter Instagram and Tik Tok were funny one tweet said Sunny Hoon found out her the year's biggest narrative Discovery was that the family owned slaves and naturally memes filled the internet with one of the most popular being a spoof of Sunny with the slogan reparations it's not about criticizing her for what her ancestors did one reader noted While others were less forgiving let me send the
check to myself soon some of her followers attempted to defend her claiming that she shouldn't be held guilty for her ancestors misdeeds shaming others while ignoring the skeletons in your own closet is hypocritical Beyond Sunny Greg took advantage of the situation to critique identity politics more broadly noting that it over simplifies complicated problems quote a lens of empathy debate highlights ableism in politics Pat fedman can do for disability what Obama did for race say what see because when all else fails use identity politics but msnbc's Lawrence O'Donnell went a step further he said that when
you concentrate too much on Race you lose sight of the individual the background and the subtlety he also stressed the value of personal responsibility noting that it's not about who you're ancestors were but rather about what you do today sunny has been preaching others for years perhaps it's time for her to take a hard look in the mirror this whole incident raises some serious problems regarding how we manage historical accountability should someone who regularly condemns others for the Deeds of their ancestors like Sunny be held to the same standard or is it sufficient to just
acknowledge the past without allowing it to Define you these Elites are so isolated they forgotten that most Americans don't get paid to sit in a comfy chair pontificating about everything all day no hope some of us are cameramen whose names I don't know but maybe one day when we finally strip away this phony race war it will finally expose this Elite mentality and we'll find out Sunny is just like Marie Antoinette except she says let me eat gre's panel was having a fantastic time with this one co-host who inquired if Sunny had been embarrassed it's
funny how entrenched she is in identity politics it turns out that she didn't even know who she was while the internet had a field day at Sunny's expense does she now have to disgrace herself further some pointed out that rather simply rejecting it as a fact of life she should have utilized the Revelation to launch a more indepth debate about history identity and the complexity of her own family's past what if she had said I've learned something surprising about my family and it's making me rethink how I approach these conversations instead she simply Shrugged and
immediately switched even Sunny's co-host on The View who was known for her Keen humor appeared confused of how to reply Goldberg who might have been holding back a joke like Sunny do you want me to get you coffee or should we ask your slaveholding ancestors for a refill make fun of the view a lot but that's only because they keep talking those hands are always clucking they get to say stupid stuff for an hour every day and then I get to say stupid stuff for an hour every day except on purpose but every now and
then one of those ding bats inadvertently says something that reveals modern liberal thoughts so perfectly it deserves further study you know like a weird serpent that washed up on the beach and you want to poke with us ultimately this is a warning and not only about sunshine narrative about the value of humility and The Perils of self-righteousness since history is convoluted confusing and frequently uncomfortable and since its shadow haunts all of us it is crucial that we approach these delicate subjects with Grace self-awareness and an openness to learning as Greg Gutfeld aptly stated that when
you search for racism everywhere in life it eventually finds you and for sunny it was right there in her family tree what will happen next would she face this irony headon or will she move on as if nothing happened only time will tell but one thing is certain this story will be studied for a very long time and who knows maybe the next time she gives a lecture on American history she will think twice before tossing stones from her glass ancestral home if you like this video please remember to like And subscribe and I'll see
