The only way Sharpton is related to Thurmond is by the slave owner's son' marriage into Thurmond's extended family and by some evidence that either the slave owner or the slave owner's son did the nasty with Sharpton's great-great-grandmother and was the father of Sharpton's grandfather. In which case:

IF the slave owner was the father: Thurmond and Sharpton are third cousins-in-law, once removed.

IF the slave owner's son was the father: Thurmond and Sharpton are second cousins-in-law, twice removed.
