      Sally Hemming met Jefferson when she was 14 and assigned to his daughter. There’s no “this is when he began raping her” date but historians believe she was in her teens.

            I never watched Hamilton, because I can’t stomach more singing hagiography.

            I would watch a remake involving late-18th century Epstein files, though.

      Most of the founding father owned slaves. Raping slaves was not an uncommon practice at the time and there were no restrictions on the appropriate age of the slaves one rapes. Thomas Jefferson may have started his “relationship” with Sally Hemming when she was 14.

      I think it would take a decent effort to get clear proof about the founding fathers raping child slaves, but it is known that they owned slaves and many had illegitimate children with slaves and raping child slaves was a common practice at the time so I think it’s a strong possibility.
