Godfathers' Kids

I don't normally do a whole lot of celebrity news here, but I read something today that gave me pause.

Here's an article about James Brown's estate and the fact that he didn't include his youngest son (age 5) in his will.

OK, big deal, right? Well, the interesting thing is that apparently James Brown's estate is being overseen by attorney Strom Thurmond Jr.

Huh? The Godfather of Soul's estate is being overseen by the son of the Godfather of Jim Crow?

Say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud...I wanna tell you there aren't enough troops to make us integrate?

Strange world kids. Strange world.
