0:06

0:18
hearing it but it is really important to us especially with election season coming. It

really helps us grow and it really helps us out and so we appreciate it when you do that
0:28
The View host Sunny Hostin had her ancestry done on the PBS show Finding Your Roots
0:35
and she got some news she didn't expect. You see it's easy to sit up on your high perch
0:41
and preach to others about all the things their ancestors did wrong and they've done wrong and
0:46
they're white supremacists and they're evil people and reparations and all these things you want to
0:51
talk about until it comes home to roost. Until you have to look yourself in the eye and realize
0:58
maybe your history isn't exactly what you think it is. You have to understand I think people forget
1:03
this most human civilizations had slaves and most human civilizations were slaves. It's a horrible
1:15
historical fact. It's tragic that it happened but when you listen to liberals a lot of times
1:20
you'll think it only happened in the United States or in western countries. No it was all over the
1:24
world. It was all over the world and it was horrible. The ancient world was brutal. Just
1:32
read some texts. Do 10 seconds worth of research. So many people think it was just an America thing
1:39
It wasn't. The ancient world was a brutal vicious place. Slavery and all kinds of horrible atrocities
1:46
genocide wiping out entire villages entire cities. This was common. Horrible but common and so when
1:55
you judge history through the lens of today of course it looks as horrible as it looks but if
2:01
you lived back then in that way of life well that was normal. Who knows in 200 years 100 years
2:11
what people are going to look back on what we're doing now today that's considered normal
2:15
and think it's horrible. Well Sunny Hostin's face when she got this news absolutely priceless
2:22
and I want you to see it and then give me your thoughts on it. So please again remember to like
2:26
comment share and subscribe. Those little things really help us out and they help our channel
2:30
continue to grow. I'm Carmine Sabia for Explain America. We love you guys. God bless you. Take
2:37
care everybody. Wow I'm I'm I'm a little bit in shock. I just always thought of myself as Puerto
2:44
Rican. You know half Puerto Rican. I didn't think I was. My family was originally from Spain and
2:51
slaveholders. Yeah. So how are you feeling my friend. I just I think it's actually pretty
3:00
interesting that my husband and I have shared roots. Yeah. So I do appreciate that and I think
3:08
it's great for our children to know this information. I guess it's a fact of life
3:15
that this is how some people made their living on the backs of others
