Sally Hemings

Was just a teenager when Thomas Jefferson initiated a sexual relationship with her.  She was his slave.  There is no way to construe this as a consensual liaison.  He didn’t even free his children by her (two ran, the others were freed by his daughter, their half-sister/cousin).

By today’s standards for sexual assault and consent,  established by the FBI, Thomas Jefferson would be a rapist and a pedophile.
