However the focus soon shifted to Keaton's mother. Social media users dug out some controversial posts of her on Facebook, where is she can be seen waving Confederate flag.
Following this revelation, she was labeled "racist" and "supremacist" by Twitterati.
Not just her, even Keaton faced backlash and was called out for using "racial slurs against black kids".
