Things that make me go Hm-m-m-m-m ...
"99%"? 10 out of every 1,000 southern "whites" did not have "black"
relatives; 990 out of every 1,000 southern "whites" did have "black"
relatives. I wonder what percentage of "blacks" had southern "white"
relatives?
It's a wonder slaveowners accomplished anything at all with all that "sex"
going on.
