First Black US President (Thomas Jefferson)
Move over Barack Obama....
You’re not the first black president of the United States of America. As a matter of fact, you are the 7th. This is a part of History that they don’t teach in schools, but they did manage to teach the stupid “One Drop Rule” which is a historical colloquial term used in the United States during the Jim Crow era, which says that a person with one drop or any trace of Black sub-Saharan ancestry (however small or invisible) cannot be considered white, and therefore must be considered black.
And if this rule was the Law, then at least 6 of our American Presidents were Negro’s (Octoroons and quadroons). Heyyyy!
-Thomas Jefferson (Jefferson was described as the son of a half-breed Indian squaw and a Virginia mulatto father)
-Calvin Coolidge (He claimed his mother was dark because of mixed Indian ancestry. Coolidge's mother's maiden name was "Moor," and in Europe, the name "Moor" was given to all Blacks, just as "Negro" was used in America. It later was concluded that Coolidge was part Black)
-Andrew Jackson (“The Virginia Magazine of History”, states Jackson was the son of an Irish woman who married a mulatto man. The magazine also stated that Jackson's oldest brother had been sold as a slave).
-Warren G. Harding (Warren G Harding did not deny his African ancestry when Republican leaders called on him to deny his "Negro" history, he said, "How should I know whether or not one of my ancestors might have jumped the fence.". Evidently, Harding had Black ancestors between both sets of parents. Harding attended Iberia College, a school founded to educate fugitive slaves)
-Abraham Lincoln (Lincoln's mother allegedly came from an Ethiopian tribe. His heritage fueled so much controversy that Lincoln was nicknamed "Abraham Africanus the First" by his opponents).
As of recently Dwight Eisenhower was added to this list because his mother was an alleged quadroon.
My oh My, History is fascinating!
