Oscar-nominated actor Edward Norton has discovered that the real-life Pocahontas, the romanticized and mythologized 17th century daughter of a Native American chief, is his 12th great-grandmother. “It just makes you realize what a small … piece of the whole human story you are,” Norton remarked following the revelation. Also discovered was that Norton’s third great-grandfather, John Winstead, owned a family of slaves including a 55-year-old man, a 37-year-old woman and five young girls. Asked what it was like to see a census that confirmed his relative was a slave owner, the “Fight Club” actor said: “The short answer is these things are uncomfortable. And you should be uncomfortable with them.” Read more at the link in bio. 📷: Isabel Infantes/AFP/Getty Images/Three Lions/Hulton Royals Collection/Getty Images
