- Summary:
- In this production of Tony Brown's Journal, Tony Brown and Millie McGhee discuss J. Edgar Hoover and the allegation that Hoover had Black ancestors. By America's false social standard, one drop of ""Black blood"" makes you all Black. If so, was J. Edgar Hoover, the infamous director of the FBI, passing for White? California Black educator Millie McGhee, author of Secrets Uncovered, talks about her research into her family genealogy and her revelation that Hoover was her grandfather's second cousin.
