about the american negro sexual genocide

The United States enforced laws and policies that granted men of European ancestry ("European Men") the authority to execute a national ethnic cleansing program and large-scale slave breeding programs, using various methods of sexual   

violence, targeting enslaved American Negroes from approximately 1790 to 1865 (the "American Negro Sexual Genocide"). See, Wilma King, "Prematurely Knowing of Evil Things": The Sexual Abuse of African American Girls and Young Women in Slavery and Freedom, 99 Journal of African American History, 173, 173-193 (2014); see also, Rachel A. Feinstein, When Rape Was Legal: The Untold History of Sexual Violence During Slavery at 21-23 (2019); Thomas Foster, Rethinking Rufus: Sexual Violations of Enslaved Men at 46-67 (2019); Gregory D. Smithers, Slave Breeding: Sex, Violence, and Memory in African American History at 101-126 (2012); and Thomas Blackshear, The Selection and Breeding of Negro Slaves (2025).


The goal of the American Negro Sexual Genocide was to forcibly impregnate American Negros girls and women to maintain and expand the enslaved American Negro population and to exploit such population by means of forcible labor. This forcible labor was used to generate wealth for European Men and for the building of the nation's infrastructure. See, Daina Ramey Berry, The Price for Their Pound of Flesh: The Value of the Enslaved, from Womb to Grave, in the Building of a Nation at 33-147 (2017). As of 2018, the value of the forcible labor provided by American Negroes is approximately $18.6 trillion (USD) and $6.2 quadrillion (USD) at 3% and 6% interest, respectively. See, Thomas Craemer et al., Wealth Implications of Slavery and Racial Discrimination for African American Descendants of the Enslaved, 47 The Review of Black Political Economy, 218, 236-241 (2020); see also, William A. Darity Jr. et al., The Black Reparations Project: A Handbook for Racial Justice at 40-46 (2023). 

Generational Genetic-Based Harms

Genetic-Based Diseases, Conditions, and Challenges Arising from the American Negro Sexual Genocide

The sexual violence inflicted upon e slaves American negroes was so vast that it restructured the genetic architecture of the American Negro population. Fouad Zakharia et al., Characterizing the Admixed African Ancestry of African Americans, 10 Genome Biology R141 (2009). This alteration has caused is causing and will continue to cause the living biological descendants of American Negroes to experience certain generational genetic-based diseases, conditions, and challenges arising from the American Negro Sexual Genocide.  See e.g., Nakatsuka, N et al., Two Genetic Variants Explain the Association of European Ancestry with Multiple Sclerosis Risk in African-Americans, 10 Scientific Reports (October 9, 2020).

Frequently Asked Questions

In the United States, the terms "African American" has evolved from an ethnic lineage term used to describe enslaved American Negroes and their descendants to a racial term that includes anyone with African ancestry living in the United States. For the purposes of this legal action and the sake of clarity, it is necessary to distinguish enslaved American Negroes and their descendants who have experienced, are currently experiencing, and will experience generational genetic-based diseases, conditions, and challenges arising from the American Negro Sexual Genocide from other populations in the United States. Therefore, term "Foundational Black American" is used to make this distinction.

Based on genetic data, used in combination with population data, enslaved American Negro girls and women endured millions (more likely tens of millions) acts of forcible rape and forcible incestuous rape at the hands of European Men during the period of the American Negro Sexual Genocide. See, Lily Agranat-Tamir et al., Counting the Genetic Ancestors from Source Populations in Members of an Admixed Population, 226 Genetics 1, 8-13 (2024); Jazlyn A. Mooney et al., On the Number of Genealogical Ancestors Tracing to the Source Groups of an Admixed Population, 224 Genetics 1, 9-13 (July 2023); Steven J. Micheletti et al., Genetic Consequences of the Transatlantic Slave Trade in the Americas, 107 American Journal of Human Genetics 265, 270-274 (2020); Katarzyna Bryc et al., The Genetic Ancestry of African Americans, Latinos, and European Americans Across the United States, 96 American Journal of Human Genetics 37, 42-43, 49 (2015); Fouad Zakharia et al., Characterizing the Admixed African Ancestry of African Americans, 10 Genome Biology R141 (2009);  Joanne M. Lind et al., Elevated Male European and Female African Contributions to the Genomes of African American Individuals, 120 Human Genetics 713, 716-720 (2007); and David Hacker, From '20. and Odd' to 10 Million: The Growth of the Slave Population in the United States, 41 Slavery and Abolition, 840, 843-844 (2020). 

In Fortson v. USA, forcible rape is defined as the forcible penetration of an American Negro girl or woman’s sex organ by the sex organ of a European Man who was not a closely related relative resulting in the birth of a child; and forcible incestuous rape is defined as the forcible penetration of an American Negro girl or woman’s sex organ by the sex organ of a European Man who was a closely related relative resulting in the birth of a child. See, Plaintiff’s Complaint below at page 7. Other forms of sexual violence endured by both female and male American Negroes during the time of the American Negro Sexual Genocide (e.g., forcible fornication, forcible incestuous fornication, and coercive fornication) are also defined in Plaintiff's Complaint on pages 8-9. 

Gain an understanding of the magnitude, duration, purpose of, and the amount of wealth that can be traced to the American Negro Sexual Genocide and related genocidal acts (e.g., the selling of American Negro children) by reading the Statement of Facts section of Plaintiff's Complaint (see pages 5-24 of Plaintiff's Complaint).


Once you have gained an understanding of the American Negro Sexual Genocide, bring awareness of this sexual genocide to the attention of the public by asking social media influencers, church leaders, members of the U.S. Congress, professional athletes, actors/actresses, and others to discuss and/or highlight the American Negro Sexual Genocide on their platforms.
