I watched the episode for Levar and looked up Burton in Pine Bluff. I saw what may have been a relative - Kendall Rayshon Burton who was just killed just this year - January 12th, 2024.

This is as funny as Don Cheadle finding out his relatives were slaves of American Indians.
Thier narrative just falls apart.
Maybe focus on what's in front of you and not so much, what's behind.
Your eyes are in the front of your head for a reason.

I have no confederate ancestors.
So I guess I owe less reparations than Levar.

THIS IS ABSOLUTE GREATNESS!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

He doesn't SEE race. He scans and interprets racial sensor data.

Your name is Tobey now. Say your name.

[wesleyfilms]

mfw LeVar owes reparations to himself.

[jimbodice]

Sort of a bummer how Lavar turned out in his older age. Not at all what I remembered as a kid. He just seems a lot more hateful and resentful nowadays.

[kallel]

Oh my...how can he play the victim anymore? 🤣

[NoPantsBaby]

Sorry Mr Burton, your race card has been declined.

[rhd]

The episode Burton finds out that his ancestors were as racist as he is.

[johnnance]

All these black folks being appalled by having white ancestry is 😂.

[YodaSF]

[patoshannessy]

Looks like LeVars now gonna have to pay himself reparations.

[drakesessions]

He mad now that he won't recieve his reparations check from Gavin Newsom 😂😂😂😂

[NotchaBizness]

How long is Levar going to pretend he’s Kunta? Smdh

The Civil War was the first acknowledged "dividing of the nations. truthfully, I have fought in a War that was nonsense, we lost at least 55, 000+; yet we stood for what our country believed in. We were wrong as the results showed. The Vietnamese people where invaded by us. Vietnam has recovered somewhat and is getting a cut in our economy now. My life is forever changed because of that War. As an American you have a right to choose who you will serve. The Civil War was America vs America. Make the best decision and stand by it till you learn ... you were set up. Then go pray and ask the Almighty for healing and keep on moving. America is still the greatest free country IN THE WORLD hands down.

[JablesMullet]

Why does Levar like to fight so much? Always talking about fighting people lately.

[pbmartinfencing]

Could you imagine if it was a white man finding out he was black and acting that way .

[talkitouT]

HE KNEW THIS MORE THAN 7 YEARS AGO SO HOW IS HE ACTING AS IF HE NEVER KNEW?? ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS SEARCH YOUTUBE LOL 😂😂😂
