Obama's family history on his African side is not rooted in American slavery. They are Kenyan, which participated very little, if at all, in the slave trade to the Americas.

Sylvia
Who was that for?
Sylvia says that history is a mitigating circumstance. The honest person, however, sees this for the hogwash that it is. From wiki:
In law, extenuating circumstances are criminal cases in which, though an offense has been committed without legal justification or excuse, its gravity, from the point of view of punishment or moral opprobrium, is mitigated or reduced by reason of unusual or extreme facts leading up to or attending the commission of the offense.
Punishment of one's ancestors is surely neither unusual nor extreme, and surely not something "leading up to or attending the commission of the offense." But, let's assume for the sake of argument that this is so. So, if slavery is a mitigating, or extenuating, circumstance in everything a black person does, which Sylvia has said, then a black person is effectively less at fault for any action. Equal protection under the law anyone?
The injustice done today folks, is the constantly "crying wolf" by people such as Sylvia undermines support for legtimate problems. If I were black, I would be ashamed of her.
Poor Mastodon.
No worries. Things have ways to work themselves out....
