Not going to read the entire article but recently “Jeopardy” had that as a fact. Just like it was proven.
bkmk
That’s the first detailed summary of the exonerating evidence I have read about this issue.
Thanks for posting it.
And, thank you, Ann, for writing it.
Click It!
Spot on.
I dont give a tinkers damn who owned slaves. I thank God that men like Jefferson, Washington, Henry, Madison et al were the leaders and forefathers of this great nation.
God Bless Betsy Ross and God Bless America!
We are lied to on a regular basis.
Just wow.
Ann deserves a lot of credit for this article.
They recently found a secret room off Jefferson’s bedroom where Sally supposedly lived. Her children were given their freedom. Sally was half sister of Jefferson’s wife and supposedly resembled her.
“muckraking, racist, alcoholic journalists” Sounds like the entire staff of MSNBC...
Realy?
Need some documentation for that assertion!
Ann has been, with some reason, consigned to the FR doghouse of late, but this essay is spot on!
Ann Coulter Bump!
Room? Cant remember but there is an nbc article by michael cottman july 3 2017.
Amen to that.
Martha Jefferson and Sally had same father, a planter named John Wayles. Sally was 3/4 European.
I do not understand the resistance to Hemmings. She went to Paris at age 16 with his daughter. She wanted to stay where she was free. He convinced her to return with special privileges. She was pregnant when She returned.losy that child.
He freed the 2 sons In his will. Only family he did that for.the daughter’s passed into white society. Planters were raping forcing themselves on slaves. Yet Jefferson seems to have cAred for Hemmings.
Thank you for your information about President Jefferson. He was a great man!
Not one of his modern day critics can hold a candle to Jefferson’s genius and accomplishments!
It is indeed unfortunate that the simpletons among us (i.e., LIEberals) continue to beat their racist drums in 2019!
Judging people of the 18th Century by 21st Century standards is just not a winning formula, IMHO!
They certainly are not winning FRiends and influencing too many people!
Do the LIEberals REALLY think that trashing people who have been dead for 200 years will work?
I say to them: “Is that all you got?”
My prediction is that LIEberals are gonna get their asses handed to them on November 3, 2020!
Republicans sweep!
Some may have. For others, I doubt there was any shortage of women preferring to keep the plantation owner's bed warm than work in the fields.
Awful thing to post.
