Anyone who has been following academia or criminal history since the 1960s is familiar with Angela Davis, the California professor turned communist radical and criminal fugitive, who has become a hero for the left.
Davis recently appeared on the Henry Louis Gates PBS program where he reveals things to people based on their DNA.
Davis got the surprise of her life, learning that some of her ancestors came to the New World on the Mayflower. She had a hard time accepting the news.

That is a list of the passengers on the Mayflower,” Gates asked Davis in the video.”No, I can’t believe this,” Davis replied, laughing. “No, my ancestors did not come here on the Mayflower.”She continued to protest while Gates confirmed the findings then responded, “Oof. That’s a little bit too much to deal with right now.”

How awkward.
Now that Davis knows she is descended from the Pilgrims, perhaps she could take a lesson from them about why socialism doesn’t work.
