How A DNA Test Led One Woman To Discover Her Secret Family History | Megyn Kelly TODAY
A man that raised you IS your father. Any other man is just spem doner.
Except in this case, the father put doubts in her head because of his own words. HE caused her to seek out the test by saying that he always wondered if she was really his. It's sad, yes. But, he shouldn't have said that if he didn't want her to go there.
You listen to Dr. Laura?
Even with those doubts he still raised her.... He probably only put that bug in her ear due to blatant infidelity, insecurities and pure saltiness. As alot of parents do, drag the kids into the adult foolishness that the kid didn't ask for..... Unfortunately this happens more than it's talked about in dry interviews like this one
Yacht Boy facts that true
Mooch M He a better man that I am. No way I would raise another man's kids if my wife cheated on me.
I love the daughter’s statement:
“... I don’t believe our ancestors make us who we are.”
This is a very wise statement. I’ve always felt that way.
Also, the man who raised her should be considered her father.
He took responsibility, emotionally and financially and with his time and effort.
All the biological father did was impregnate her mother in the heat of sexual
passion and walk away - end of story.
Having said that, the three talking with Megyn seem like a lovely family.
I like how this quote is used, however, being black and white myself, does this quote still apply to why black people treat white people unfairly because of slavery? There are people who hate white people because of slavery but this didn't happen directly to them or their immediate family. Yes, ancestors go through things good and bad, but when will we take a person's character as who they are instead of their skin color? Your comment just made me think 🤔
Boss Lady,
I know. Bigotry is patently wrong, regardless of who is guilty of it. This is one sad world we’re living in.
@@bosslady1973 also our ancestors are a huge part on what makes us who we are . Black people get our strength sense of family spiritual back ground and our bravery from our ancestors who were alaeé
@@antoineporche-rideaux4006 But that bundles EVERY white person into that. When do we hold those responsible for what they do and for those that have no part of it at face value?
@@antoineporche-rideaux4006 I don't know many black people that can do a family tree. It's awesome if you can, but my grandma can't recall any relatives past her grandmother. I feel many of us don't know what our ancestry is so how do we feel this ancestral tie?
What you hate in other people will end up in your family.
onebigkahuna69 and I reckon that's why the universe does it.
onebigkahuna69 what’s the old saying Karma is a mother......hits you when you least expect it!
One of the best comments Onebigkahuna69
onebigkahuna69 yes
#FACTS
Then his daughter married a man of colour. I love how life turns it around, the granddaughter is stunning... Its all so nuts
Well he also had a child with a (part) jewish woman as well...don't forget that. Lol...
Joe Kerr r
@@joekerr9197 her Jewish side we’re white Jews 🤷🏽♂️
Ironic isn't it? Serves him right. God works in mysterious ways. His granddaughter is stunning and intelligent. Beautiful young lady
She is indeed dazzling
49????? Girl you look 30. Beautiful family.
This is why her mother didn’t tell her about him
and Mohammad's father died 4 years before he was born.
dna test, anyone?
I don't think her mother knew that he was such a blatant racist. She barely knew the man when she got pregnant by him.
Why she slept with him?
She got black in her blood. One brop rule !😂😂😂😂
@Shaq love, it is possible. It was said that the mother had phone conversations with the birth father well past the time of the one night stand.
49? Wow she looks a lot younger
M. A. Manago she looks like a 30 something year old!
Wendy's 'scary' good looking, regardless of her lineage.
Beautiful family. It is sad. She looks gorgeous.
M. A. Manago I
I thought the same!!!!
It's not funny but when she said 'he was afraid that he might have black in him' I laughed so hard
Devandanerd its the fear of most racists.
Devandanerd all whites have some black in them😂
his biological daughter gets a little black in her every night from her husband.. i'm surprised he tried to reconnect to her after knowing her family situation he must not be so racist after all
bet he does
+DevanFTM - He's probably afraid that he might have a little black in him because his knows the history of what the slave masters did to those poor little black girls / women. :/
I am adopted, my Dad is still my Dad. A biological father is different, he'll never be dad.
AMEN
For health reasons it’s important to know but otherwise it’s the relationship that counts.
My biological father was never really a dad to me, so it works both ways.
This goes to show you that racism and bigotry are taught and learned behaviours, not natural. She’s a true example how if you’re raised with good people, despite what your parents, grandparents etc have done, you can turn out to be a good person and rise above all that toxic negativity.
her and her daughter are both very pretty
Jamie Jared yes pretty
Mohamed Omar ûy
What? I'm going to give you a grammar lesson. For a sentence to be proper the nouns can stand by themselves; example, her is very pretty? or She is very pretty? She and her daughter are both very pretty.
@@SmoothOperator2013 Grammar police here, and you're not even correct. This person said their sentence correctly. Not every single thing typed on these kinds of things need to be perfect
@@1rage17 There is nothing wrong with correcting someone's grammar. The problem is people feel insulted rather than learning from their mistakes and using it as self improvement.
I am correct.
First you state that I am wrong, then you state that not everything has to be perfect. Try to break the sentence up. Her is very pretty? Her daughter is very pretty, but she is pretty. She refers to subjective noun third person. Which means she is the subject of the clause. Her is an objective noun. The direct object or indirect object of the clause.
so we just gonna ignore the fact that he said he took part in the murder of M.L.K,Jr.?!?!
the man is dead..what u want to do dig him up and ask what the F##k ?
Well we can't help who or what our ancestors did....that's a fact. Just don't do evil and treat others how you wish to be treated.
+Beverly Balius True... We have got to do better! People have to be more responsible & evaluate the consequences of their actions.
Let God deal with him
Sweetie BreLOVE Phil 😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is one case where not knowing one's parent was a great thing. She did not get a chance to learn his beliefs.
Cheryl Murray I 💯 percent agree with u on this one. I laughed a little at your statement because of the truth behind it. The truth ain't ALWAYS PRETTY it can b very ugly n 😢 SOMETIMES!
Cheryl Murray that’s sooo true!
Yesss!
Everything happens for a reason.
A lie is never a great thing no matter how horrible your biological parent is!
When the daughter said “our ancestors don’t make us who we are...” the whole audience should have burst out in applause.
@E W I mean where does that statement lack truth? We may exist because of our ancestors but we don't inherently share their beliefs.
Why our ancestors play a big role in who we are good or bad
@@kershab33 not necessarily if u find out that one of ur descendants was a slave owner u would distance urself from that specific ancestor
@@KD400_ Yes, exactly. Today's German people are typically deeply ashamed of their historical past and try to distance themselves from it. If your grandfather was a Nazi, doesn't mean you need to live with that defining who you choose to be.
The daughter don't understand her Black heritage...our ancestors do define/influence who we are today.We gather strength a sense of pride in knowing what they endured.The daughter white great-grandfather being part of KKK will be a constant reminder for her to treat all people equal.
Mother looks SO young - and her young daughter is a beauty, too.
Yes, her skin is amazing for her age! I'm 57, so I can say that lol.
Victor looks like raven's dad Victor from that's so raven
HABBY O Yep.... 😂😂😂
THATS WHAT I WAS SAYING
HABBY O sure does
HABBY O ...... Right!!!? I was like why does he look so familiar 😂😂🤔
*F A C T O* *! !*
Wow, such a racist man has such a racist son, but his daughter was not racist. She actually married an African American man, and has a biracial daughter. I bet that ol racist is turning in his grave. Good for him! So glad that her Dad didn't have a hand in raising her or she could've ended up a much different person.
somewhere in a cycle, something's gonna break. the ones served on his plate's the one his forefather threw up. someone in the cycle somehow is going to have to take that in. Karma is one word from KKK.
His daughter didn’t grow up in the cesspool of Hate... even in a broken home love of humanity can prevail.
Stacy Johnson the old guys racist and so aren’t they against his beliefs
Bill Miller didn't raise his daughter with his racism. That's why she's not racist.
Yea sounds like it was a blessing in disguise that she was raised by a man who clearly had far fewer issues...seems like God was protecting her so she could have the family she ended up having...
Accept him for the "way I am" he says, while he uses racial slurs against others. How ironic!
I would have told him, I accept this is who you are but you have to accept me too. My beliefs are such that being in your presence is extremely uncomfortable. You are correct, your dad is the man who raised you.
Wow. The irony that the grandpa would one day discover he had a daughter who half resembled what he hates, and half resembles who he loves. May Jesus heal his heart and call him to a greater love.
Applause to the man that raised her and stuck by her even though he knew she wasn't his!
Cosette is the perfect equal mix of her mom and dad!!!! And mom looks closer to 40 than 50!!!!
WynWyn I was thinking the same thing she looks no where near 50.
She looks 30 to me lmao
I said the same thing. I just kept looking like were is the aging?
Yes! She looks younger and she's very beautiful
She does look younger than her age.
Bet she has some Black in her. She is indeed beautiful!
Rich/evil people's - baby fetus face cream.
Wendy's cute. BUT HAVE ANY OF YOU PEOPLE WHO'RE RAVING OVER HER EVER HEARD OF COSMETIC SURGERY??!!?? GOOD GRIEF!!!!!
She probably learnt to use cocoa butter from her husband
It's that melanin in them genes
Wait... so am I the only one who just realized that we just found out who killed mlk jr.
I just stumbled on this by chance. I couldn't get a picture but heard the commentary and I was like, What did she just say? MLK's killer was just revealed on the Meghan Kelly show and she just glossed right over it. WTF!
Kimberly Bernard Wasn't it already revealed who killed him though?
am not sure if i heard it right......
Weve already been " told" who killed mlk however we know who they say killed him is false.
The govt killed him
Kimberly Bernard he was one of the men who did it
Wendy is a beautiful lady inside and out. She dealt with all of this with such grace.
This is an amazing story. It’s almost as if it’s right out of a movie.
But can we also just quickly address how stunning this woman is? She’s 49?? Man, give me what she’s got! She’s clearly a classy woman and a woman who is very loved. That’s gotta be the secret.
TEDx PaloAlto Know where you come from, but choose who you are / Wendy Spencer
WOW what a story! I am glad she had a better dad than the biological one and not his influence!
wtf i thought she was still 29
sof897 no she is 19 with the video and photo art program it's all fake and very funny how people can be fake and think there hidden in this world she's not even close to any real program technology upgrades yet but I have to give it a thumbs down version is very out dated for me lol....cheesy....
“Meeting my daughter is the best thing ever happened to me!”Off course you are old and you need help. If it was earlier in your life when you had to pay support and school that wouldn’t be the case.
Ok?
How do you know that ? Her mom is the one that lied and didn’t tell him that he had a daughter!
What a loser. (Bill Miller)
Ayat. You have a problem with people paying child support. Just be happy and move on.
@@atlsongbyrd6084 the story said he kept in contact with the mother.
The wizard is just rolling in his grave! Got black in your family now ❤ Love wins
African AND Jewish!
name twins 😮
@@apresslerx LOVE!💕
This man is not her father/Dad...he is her sperm donor! Who raises and loves you through your lifetime is your Mom and Dad! I’m adopted and therefore have a egg and sperm donor out there somewhere! My parents are the people who call daily, worry about me and love me thoroughly!
Well said
true
Well that bis a switch , racist has biracial granddaughter .......... lol
ahahaha best story ever :D
Take this! Racist! xD
I'd suggest there are many many racists out there who have biracial children lol you are simply not told about it..
my biofather is one off them
And a Jewish daughter. =-D
Haha I'm one but my grandma is black
What a beautiful Family! I was beyond impressed with their Daughter's response!
GR8 job Mom and Dad!!
It goes to show it's NOT ALWAYS nature over nurture!!
Last year we found out my sisters and I have an older sister. Due to the lack of a relationship with my paternal mother, we where shocked. My paternal mother refused her as she did all her kids she did raise. Its a sad but glorious opportunity to have an older sister. She even looks like me!!!
Paternal mother? Do you mean Paternal grandmother?
@@indigenousspinster_6665 I think she must have been raised by 2 lesbians. One is more motherly/nurturing, the other wears the pants and flannel shirts, you know, the more parental mother, who they call Pop.
@@adeho789 i think what she meant was Biological mother, she clearly doesn’t have a basic I understanding of familial terms
@@adeho789 and no that doesn’t exist in lgbt relationships, neither in lgbt families 😂
@@indigenousspinster_6665 Oh, yes, that does make more sense. I think you're right on biological mother. Some people are even worse! I knew a guy in his 20's who was an only child... He didn't know the difference between nephew/niece and cousin. He claimed to be really smart and have a high IQ, yet he couldn't get those straight. /:
Who is a dad? In my tribe we say whoever raises the child is the dad not biological.
Her daughter is beautiful! And I know it had to hurt her hearing mom hearing that about her grandfather. So sad 😔
What? Riveting? And then you give us 3/4's of a human story and don't wrap it up with a finish??? What's up with that? You. Left. Us. HANGING. Terrible interview.
Kathleen5429 i thought I was the only one it doesn’t make sense
I'm here saying the same thing ..waiting for the pin to drop\shoe to drop & yawnnn.This was not a riveting anything.
Megan doesn't want to say too much and turn off her FOX News fans
I so agree. She just cut the interview with no real wrap-up or closure.
Centennial It looks like it was on NBC? The Today Show? Not Fox.
Wow she looks so young, and very beautiful!!!
My goodness, Wendy and her daughter can pass as sisters!!!
such a beautiful family!
Joyce Thomas What? From an affair?
Cung sensel, I think Joyce is talking about Wendy's family (husband and daughter).
The daughter and her husband seem like nice , good people. God bless them ❤️
She turned out to be a wonderful person with a loving family - Some people do not even have one decent & loving parent!! ❤
She is a beautiful woman.and she has a beautiful family.
Our ancestors do partly make us who we are.
I think what she meant is that, her great-grandfather actions can't influence her as person, neither can her grandfathers beliefs, even if they are related by blood.
Absolutely.
I kinda was thinking that too, but I realized what the baby was saying🤔, cute girl.
But look at life...a terribly racist man who had a violently racist father...ends up accidentally creating a daughter who is so different that she marries a man of colr and creates children who are both. It's almost like God taking that horrible man's hate and making something/someone beautiful out of him since he's so useless.
"People oughta accept me for the way I am." .....Yeah maybe offer others the same courtesy, bro
I just want to say, look at her, her amazing and handsome husband and their gorgeous daughter. What an unknowingly ancestral cycle change. Beautiful beautiful BEAUTIFUL family. They all three handled this with dignity, resilience and strength. I Love and adore them.
Our race and sexuality are not a choice. What is a choice is everything else. No matter where we come from, how bad the conditions are or what blood courses through our veins, it’s our perception and how we in which we choose to deal and process it all. And just as important, is our desire and determination to rise above our past conditions and heritage to become much better. It’s where we want to go and and who we desire to be and become. Setting the bar higher and doing better are the words that inspired me by the ever so amazing, Mr. Sidney Poitier.
You can't judge yourself or your life based on what your ancestors did. The past is dead. The future is alive.
ThePhilosopher1748 hunny the past is still here...
@@splendorinthegrass4557 no its is not really. It is just ignorant people that holding on to it as excuses. And makes the world miserable for people who want to live in peace and harmony, together. ❤✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿Not all people are racists. I believe racism will get better in the future, because it is up to us how we gonna raise the future generations. If we teach them the right thing it will get better.🌺In conclusion just love one another no matter what.
@@splendorinthegrass4557 Exactly.
@@BB-ts4mz Umm nothing has changed like that. We had Trump as a president for four years and more racial tension than when Obama was president.
If my grandfather kicked your grandfather it is on my grandfather ........if my son kicks your son , it is on me because I should have taught him better !
dang she doesn’t look 49 at all
What a beautiful family. So sorry Wendy Spencer's dad was a racist and a disappointment.
The old man is missing out on having this beautiful family in his life by his attitude. He doesnt deserve them.
Sadly he was brought up by a racist and just carried the torch of racism further into his future.
Hope he turns his life around and find out what he has been missing out on most of his life, being part of the human race (whether black, indian, white, asian) were all family
I am stunned how gracious Wendy reacted and handled that. Also her husband and daughter. Actually it is horrifying. The only good thing I took out of this story is superficial, but true. She obviously has great looks, as I really thought she was in her 30´s.
Yeah, she took after her biological father, but she is so beautiful, unlike him.
Wow. I think everything happens for a reason. And I feel that the man she called father was in her life to protect her from the revelations of her biological father until she was strong enough to handle what was reviled. Her family (Mother, husband, daughter, and the man who raised her). Is her strength.
strom Thurman had a black daughter....no different then being on the plantation.
He had more than 1 black daughter. I believe there are 2 others. His daughter that came out and told the truth is my aunt.
Such a horrible man and he made laws for us to obey
So she's at least 50 years old ! She looks good !
Wow this family is absolutely amazing! God bless them! Wanting to find out the truth and getting pinched in the stomach like that! What a wonderful sweet family! Her parents raised her right and thank goodness her biological dad didn’t raise her. Her husband is beyond classy! Now they’re doing an amazing job as parents!!
Cosette's comment, "I don't believe our ancestors make us who we are," was brilliant!
She had a lucky escape, you are not defined by your family history, it is what you do in your own life that matters. The man was a product of his upbringing, he knows no better.
Her daughter is lovely and has a beautiful French name. Cosette is the name of the single mother in Les Miserables, in the book by Victor Hugo, France's beloved author.
Cosette is actually the daughter.
Her daughter is beautiful
celyncapo and an airhead

Yes she is beautiful.😊
The DNA test reveals I am 26% golden retriever.
Good for you. You are from better stock than most
Oh nice. How's your barking?
Lol i love this thread
LMAO! Thanks, I needed a good laugh! :'D :'D :'D :'D
Awesome I am 25% golden retriever and 25% dachshund, 20% irish wolfhound and 30% border collie! I think you may be my cousin!
DNA advances are such a crazy thing. I'm adopted and recently took the tests and found so many things I wasn't even looking for. Mind blown.
What does the DD mean her ancestry doesn't influence us?!?! She chose not to act like him!!! Nobody wants to hear their father was part of the KKK and attacked mlk!!!
Just goes to show that a person should NEVER be judged on the actions of their ancestors, and people shouldn't have to apologise for being related to horrible people.
I found a half sister I never knew about. We have met and are working on a relationship.
The mom and the daughter are both so beautiful.
I'm about to turn 46. I wish I could say I've aged as well as this beautiful woman. Wendy won the genetic lottery there.
She looks in her twenties
"Many years earlier before she was born." Pretty sure that was just a few months before she was born....
Wow! God bless this woman and her new family. What an amazing example of class & kindness. It just goes to show us that we are not defined by our parents & if God wants to change the hearts of children He will! XO
Megan Kelly is not good at this!!!!! Wasted interview.
londiwe langa well Megan is a racist... So she can't figure out how to be unbiased.
Agreed.. this interview was choppy.. she should have introduced to 2 additional people to the panel...! Megan is Fox News person, she just doesn’t have what it takes to nurture a meaningful conversation... she’s hard.. really black and white... no gray when she reports
londiwe langa. Megan appears to have dark eyes, not sure, have not really sought out a close up, but that is "one" way to tell when there is dark- skinned genealogy within a person; thick/ thicker lips, natural full heavy hair, real obvious hips, easily tans, curly black hair, heavier speaking vocal tones! Most Blacks; Latinoes, Native Americans, Asians can tell when you carry our ancestry, whether you can or not.
londiwe langa that’s because she’s racist and a trump supporter!
@@d.joseph98 and you are not very bright
3:38 "It's not a black or white kinda thing."
Cough. Um....yeah it IS exactly a black or white kinda thing!! Lol.
Their daughter is absolutely beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
We just recently discovered a nephew that was my deceased brothers son proven by DNA test. We finally got to meet with this 25 year old nephew. Oh Lord! He was an absolute know it all. No one could carry on a conversation with this kid because he thinks he knows more than anyone!
My Adoptive Dad will always be the best Dad I know & lucky to have.
My bio father deserted me when I was 12 yrs old. My mother married a man who I call dad. He was bi racial I am black he treats me as his child. I will always love him as my dad.
I cringed when Megyn said "bill miller pops up as your dad." He is not her "dad", he is her father. He did not raise her. "Dad" is a familiar title. Just insensitive in my opinion.
Well her real dad was no saint.
She was realky better off with out her biological sperm donor. Seriously. This dude was dark.
So glad she wasn't raised by him
Thought it would be more exciting than that. Kind of a let down. Most older people that age are either racist in one way or another or anti PC so that wasn’t surprising. The info on the great grandfather was a little more interesting but still, I expected more.
My great grandfather was the wizard of oz on my dad side and on my mom side my grandfather was robin hood :(
My grandmother claimed that my mother was fathered by a member of the British Royal Family ... nobody believed her. She was living in a very working class area of London when my mother was conceived. However ... in 1999, long after my grandmother's death, I came across a web-page that detailed the movements of Prince Albert (later to become King George VI) around the time of my mother's conception. He attended a gathering of "working-class leaders", accompanied by only a single companion, at a location very close to where my grandmother was living ... on. believe it or not May Day (it is reported from other sources that the Prince was toying with becoming a Socialist!) He was in the habit of popping over to Paris, incognito, for a day or two, where, so his brother's diary noted, he had liaisons with women. My grandmother claimed my mother was conceived in Paris. If my grandmother's claim is true (that my mother was fathered by a "member of Royalty") then Queen Elizabeth may be my aunt.
My mother told me that when she was very young (maybe about 4) her mother took her to "large house in the country" ... where a man came into her room and spoke to her ... she thought that he was her father. Her mother later told her that her father was "a Duke". Albert was then the Duke of York. In 1930 my grandmother had a total mental breakdown, after the man she was living with left her for a younger woman ... my mother ended up in an orphanage. A "mysterious benefactor" arranged for her to be fostered out and provided for her education.... my mother thought that he was probably a relative ... my grandmother came from a family background that included people who owned farms and were fairly well-off. Immediately prior to my grandmother being taken away to an asylum and my mother being placed in an orphanage my mother said that "Three well-dressed men visited the house ... she thought that they had 'come from her father'". Its possible that money was provided to a family member to support my mother.
David Peters that is a crazy cool story ... Have you done a DNA test yet?
Wow that's crazy if indeed he was her father
After not having looked at my Ancestry account for a couple of years I, for no reason, felt inclined to check it ... and found a message, posted a few days earlier, from a descendent of the man who my grandmother lived with until 1930. He had married and had chldren after he left my grandmother. As he is recorded on my mother's birth certificate as her father his descendents by his wife should have the same DNA as my branch ... if he really was my mother's father. I haven't yet figured out how to persuade them to have their DNA tested (at my expense). Do I want to prove I'm not of "royal blood"?
@@jordanpeters3746 I mean that could be interesting, just like adopted kids wanting to know who their real parents are
What a story. Interesting perspective Cosette “Our ancestors don’t necessarily make us who we are” Beautiful family.
Very attractive lady. Be careful searching. Mom kept him out of her life for a reason.
Well...I was not expected that. Mind blowing
Interesting story.
Three years ago I donated my dna to 23 and me to figure out why I was so sick with a autoimmune disease. This past February I was contracted by my first cousins son who I did not know because I grew up all my life thinking my father was one man and he was not. My mom had a affair in between my older sister and my brother and never told me. She was dying of Pancreatic cancer at the time but I had to find out the truth. I am someone else's child. I have 4 other sibling who have no idea I exist 3 in my hometown where my mom and dad moved me away from when I was very young and 1 who lives on the other side of the country. Yes I have found them all. My biological father has been gone since 2009 and my mom died 10 weeks ago. I don't know what to do. I am 50 feel like my whole life was a lie.

I hope this finds you well. Please find one of these finding parent group to join with friends with the same problem. God bless you.
My grandfather and his brother was sold to a farmer in 1910. There were 13 kids in the family and there were younger and older siblings. He lived his old life wondering why his parents had chosen him and his brother. At his funeral, his oldest sister asked my mom, an only child, if she wanted to know. My mother said yes and her aunt told her that my grandfather and his brother were due to an affair. My great grand father supposedly knew all along but just couldn't take it any longer when they went through a tough financial time, he sold the two of them to a farmer in Massachusetts.
Oh wow, that’s quite a traumatic story. Thanks for sharing it, surprised you haven’t had more comments.
So he said that he took part off Martian Luther king murder
That's the only thing that I heard that actually matter to me
Every thing else matter very little ..
And the church bombing that killed those 4 little girls
Devastating
There’s no such thing as “your” truth....it’s simply THE truth.
I love what Cosette said. “Your ancestors don’t make you who you are.” Brilliant! I wish everyone else thought this way. Maybe all the hatred would stop.
My father always had negative things to say about black people, even though his wife had black in her. His three daughters all chose a black man for their life partner. Lol.
These segments make me like Megan Kelly. They are so thought provoking. I appreciate this family sharing their story. I did not expect the turn of events at the end. It is sad.
See, eventually down the line,
Our generation, combined,
Our connected bloodline,
We can change for the better,
In time,
Our future lifetimes,
True example, may this
Family shine,

Ppl should stop hating ppl where in the bible did our Heavenly Father say hate your brothers or sisters no matter of ones colour what's colour any way we may be painted all the colours of the rainbow 🌈 but in the end our Heavenly Father our Holy Spirit loves us all equally cause we are all his children ! I prey that this madness will one day stop and everyone will see we are one and the same we are all gods children we are all brother and sisters if we cut our selves we bleed the same blood !!! Hopefully god can open narrow minded souls that hate is not the way it just a festation to eat away ate ones very conscious .

I'll pray to that! Amen and thank you Jesus!
First of all their daughter is so beautiful ❤️ Second it's a good thing that the dad that raised her was the dad that raised her because she would have turned out like him too since they learn it from their fathers and mothers, it's good that she didn't grow up with him.
This is such a powerful story. What I took away is that racism is taught based on your environment, upbring, social setting etc and not something that you inherit. So sad!
Very interesting. I applaud this woman and her family are for how they handled the grandfather's vile prejudices. That couldn't have been easy. When I was a young woman, I would've had the same opinion that this daughter expressed regarding how our lives are not determined by our ancestors' but feel differently as I've gotten older. Although as adults, I think we can pick and choose what characteristics we're going to take on but making major behavioral changes takes a lot of self awareness and internal work.
The granddaughter is extremely pretty.
Megyn Kelly is killing the Today show - used to watch faithfully - done not anymore she is not a personality for day time TV - she is FOX News she is not relatable
A fuktard libtard who goes off the rails when someone suggests Santa and Jesus are not white, yeah sure in your mind anyway...
This reporter is on because of sleeping her way up to the top and backstabbing.

Meghan had no empathy at all.
Exactly!
Well thanks for this. I’m on my 3rd decade of searching, and prepared for some bad and ugly, so it’s inspiring to me to hear this story.
Wow !! Did she ever break the rules or what?when you marry someone you are marrying their culture as well,that is the real question,are you prepare to take on their life style,now she will forever be stuck with this whole mess,that is something i could never allow myself to put myself through and that's why i married my own race.i am not prepared to marry a black women per say or a white women for that matter.
Wow she just sells him out like that right away on national television
