Keaton Jones’ Mother: ‘We’re Not Racist, I Posted The Confederate Flag To Be Funny’

Kimberly Jones, the mother of alleged bullying victim Keaton Jones, is speaking out in defense of photos found on her Facebook page showing her with the Confederate flag. Keaton Jones, 11, told “GMA” he “never imagined” his story would gain the attention of dozens of celebrities, saying, “[I’m] speechless, honestly.” Keaton’s video went viral and gained national support before the confederate flag pictures were discovered. A GoFundMe page created for Keaton’s family by a man in New Jersey raised 60K but has since been paused.
