Yes, I vaguely remember hearing online that someone might be distantly related to John Wilkes-Booth, the stage actor who shot President Lincoln in a crowded theater. He might have had a better chance of escaping if he had not broken his leg on his way out the door and then had to consult a doctor for that, and of course that is a long story, how they tracked him down. But anyway, doesn't the Bible say that the son should not have to pay for the crimes of the father? So why should that matter now?
And then there are those who are trying to kill the memory of President Andrew Jackson, even though I thought I heard online that my cousin had married a Jackson, a white Jackson, not a black Jackson. We are white people so we don't really have that much use for the Motown version of that.
