She's also assuming that any white person living today had ancestors who owned slaves, and those slave owning ancestors were miraculously spared death at the hands of the slaves once they were freed. This entails so many bizarre assumptions that I don't even know where to start.

Yep, this kind of collectivism is table stakes for these insane ideologies. People are their groups. Groups are eternally responsible for (or victimised by) anything related to their group. Group dynamics therefore can, and should, be layered onto all individual interactions no matter how irrelevant they might seem.
