The lawsuit is what led to the deposition which is what led to the news coverage. She's trying to play it off like it was oh so long ago, and oh man, she's just a product of her times. I'm not buying it for one second.

You can't admit in a deposition that yes, the conversation in which she wanted to have little black tapdancing boys (just like Shirley Temple!) in her brother's plantation wedding, and servers made to represent SLAVES sure did happen, and then say "Oh no, it was so long ago that I used that word. I didn't use that word in that conversation that pretty much proves that I'm a horrible racist."
