Just saw a video where he finds out his great-great-grandfather was white.
He was not happy.

Just pointing out that while many people like to admire the various Star Trek actors, some of them have pretty unadmirable characteristics. Burton might just have been, up to now, the longest holdout. People also thought he was fine because of Reading Rainbow etc. Now we know better.
Oh, and in case anyone still had any doubts, Patrick Stewart is not Captain Picard and "Whoopi Goldberg" (real name: Caryn Johnson) is NOT Guinan. Like Burton, they Both have some pretty bizarre personal attitudes that have more recently come to light.
