But it was more common in Latin America than the US as far as race-mixing.Also there are 40% of American Blacks have non-white ancestry.

Miniseries like 'Jefferson in Paris' & ‘Sally Hemings: American Scandal’ suck! They cast much too-old, much too-dark Mulattoes (Thandie Newton, Carmen Edjogo, etc.) to play the role of Sally Hemings, a 12-year old fair Quadroon. In addition, the screen play has Hemings (who again would have been a fearful 12 year old) as "the seductress" of "poor, helpless Jefferson" The disgusting role-reversed/dark-seductress false portrayal of Jefferson's sexual-abuse of Hemings ruin the entire miniseries

IT WAS 'RAPE" It was NOT a "relationship" As a young, enslaved CHILD (despite having white skin, gray eyes, brown hair) HEMINGS HAD NO CHOICE in the sexual exploitation of/assault on her sexual/reproductive organs To minimize, justify or excuse his exploitation of this enslaved person is as bad as excusing/ justifying any of the forms of enslavement In regards to “choices”, Hemings life was more akin to that of the kids in today's 3rd-world-child-brothels & not that of a "secret-mistress"
