The mom whose crying kid video went viral was exposed as a racist who protested Black Lives Matter and had photos of her children proudly waving Confederate flags which are still popular in the South.
Kimberly Jones and her son Keaton made headlines last week when she posted a video of the boy crying after schoolchildren bullied him and poured milk on him in the school lunchroom.
The video went viral on Facebook.com prompting Fox News host Sean Hannity to donate $10,000 to a scholarship fund set up for Keaton. He also offered to fly the family to New York to appear on his show.
Update; Good news, apparently some Titans and Vol players are helping Keaton. The school needs this Fixed immediately or people should be fired. If Someone sets up scholarship account for Keaton, let’s raise $. I’ll start with $10,000. $5,10,25 pp would be amazing. https://t.co/IzLGx2e9V6

Hannity promised to call the school and speak to the principal about the bullying.
If someone can get to me the name of the school, the principal, school board members i will gladly make the calls myself and fix this. Also if anyone knows Keaton and his parents, i will gladly fly them to NYC to be my guest & visit Fox News. https://t.co/uFyp2r2Yn7

Other celebrities invited the boy to Hollywood for a weekend of fun.
But on Monday, Jones was called out by Facebook users who uncovered a post she wrote in August urging Americans to “STOP crying” over racism and slavery.
Internet sleuths also uncovered images of her children waving Confederate flags which black people view as symbols of racism.
Jones shut down her Facebook page and created a GoFundMe account to solicit donations.
This is Keaton Jones. He is amazing. I hope those who bullied him get what’s coming to them. And soon. pic.twitter.com/qgRObI0rto
