There might be a loose knit organization of people with that ancestry. If any were offended, I wouldn't call that wrong but neither do I think it noble or liberating. Various arrangements of the power of individuals in society have held forth for a long time - lords and serfs, masters and slaves, with pockets of semi liberated souls also existing for brief ages.
We're all born into some role, most don't rise or fall that far from the circle they were spawned in. For Washington to evolve in the midst of the possession of serious power is noteworthy. Much more common for people to be loathe to lose power.
