At the end of the day, I just like facts. Lotta talk of him being racist but no facts to back it up so far. If there is then we gotta see it.

This y'all boy tho lmao
Asking a question? It was made to seem like they're online with racist rants and videos, I was wondering if I had missed something. Its being said that the kid is racist at school to other kids, no videos or other kids to back this up, though.
I get it, confederate flag = usual white trash racist fucks but there's a whole lotta reaching outside of that one picture, tbh. I don't give a fuck about the kid, either. I was curious to the evidence over the claims.

Rihanna, Chris Evans, other stars rethink how to support bullied middle schooler Keaton Jones
Celebrities who rushed to join sports stars and the rest of America in showing an outpouring of support for bullied Tennessee middle school student Keaton Jones struggled with how to maintain that sympathy after photos surfaced of the boy’s mother holding a Confederate flag.
That’s right, what’s been called the “feel-good story” of a contentious time in our nation has turned out to be as murky as everything else.
Keaton became a household name over the weekend after his mother posted to Facebook a video of the 11-year-old tearfully describing his torment about being bullied at school.
An outpouring of support came from a number of celebrities, including Rihanna, Patton Oswalt, Chris Evans, Mark Hamill, Justin Bieber, Jennifer Lopez, Katy Perry and Gal Gadot, who shared the video with their fans. Evans invited the boy to attend next year’s L.A. premiere of “Avengers: Infinity War.”
LeBron James also voiced his support, and Jarrett Guarantano, a freshman quarterback for the University of Tennessee Volunteers, tweeted Monday that he’d spent the day with his “new best bud” Keaton.

The video was shared as many 20 million times before Keaton’s mother, Kimberly Jones, set her Facebook page to private.
But the sympathy of these stars and others was challenged Monday over the reason that Kimberly Jones made her Facebook account private.
Old social media posts suggested racism in the mother’s past and perhaps in the family, Deadline and other outlets reported. One photo showed Kimberly Jones holding a confederate flag, what many view as a racist symbol. Another photo showed Keaton holding an American flag and another child holding a Confederate flag. In other old posts, Kimberly Jones criticized Colin Kaepernick and others for protesting police brutality against black Americans, Deadline said.
Moreover, questions arose over online fundraising campaigns that purported to be on Keaton’s behalf, Fox News said. One GoFundMe campaign was started without the knowledge of Keaton’s family. It had had raised $57,000 but stopped taking donations and was holding onto the money for the family until it received more direction from them, according to an email from the person who started it.
In an interview with CBS This Morning Tuesday, Kimberly Jones said the confederate flag photos were taken out of context and were meant to be “a joke.”
“The only two photos on the entire planet where I am anywhere near a Confederate flag,” she said. “It was ironic. It was funny. I’ve said I spent most of my life being bullied and judged because I wasn’t racist.”
With CBS News, Keaton also spoke poignantly about how he’s glad he chose to record the video. “[It] made me feel like I had accomplished something real, something that could actually change the world,” said the boy, who won’t return to his school until after the new year.
By Tuesday, celebrities were rethinking how to maintain their support for Keaton and for his anti-bullying message.
Rihanna removed an Instagram post, where she called Keaton a hero, Newsweek reported. She instead posted a message about two girls, 10-year-old Ashawnty Davis and 13-year-old Rosalie Avila, who killed themselves in separate incidents in late November after being bullied.
“Just heartbreaking!!!!!” the pop star posted on Instagram for the girls. “We’re losing our babies to bullying!!! Teach your kids love and equality. Teach them about the beauty in uniqueness and how to embrace others’ differences! I can’t imagine what the families of these 2 young girls are feeling right now! But my heart breaks for you!! #BulliesKill”
Others seemed eager to continue to show support for Keaton, including Evans who said he still regards Keaton as a “hero” — along with another boy who had been bullied. Evans retweeted Mark Ruffalo’s post showing support for the boy who also recorded a video about being bulled but who had not yet received any of the national attention given to Keaton.

Many celebrities were especially eager to point out that Keaton is still a kid and can’t be blamed for the statement or actions of his mother and other adults:

Theyre now voting in white nationalist with racist history into the govt with zero regard for your kids
They dont give a damn when a cop slams a 16 year old black girl wearing a bikini
But lets feel sorry for someone who clearly hates us
Fuck the Mom, idgaf about the Mom, but the kid didn’t choose his mom. Do you think terrible ideas like racism just pop into kids heads on their own or are learned through hateful parents like this one?
