An ancestor of Joe Biden owned an enslaved 14-year-old boy, according to a genealogical study

Five of the six living US presidents are direct descendants of slaveholders, according to an investigation by Reuters published on Tuesday.

The comprehensive study, released just days after the country celebrated the ‘Juneteenth’ federal holiday on June 19, which commemorates the emancipation of African American slaves, details that Donald Trump is the only living current or former US head of state not to have familial links to slavery.

The ancestors of current President Joe Biden, as well as Barack Obama, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter, are all descended from slaveholders, the report states. Obama’s links to slavery are on his mother’s side of his family, according to the study, which examined the extended genealogies and census data of those who occupy Washington’s halls of power.

Census records indicate that Biden’s great-great-great grandfather was in possession of an enslaved 14-year-old boy in 1850, according to the report. The White House did not comment on Biden’s purported ancestral links to slavery.

Five out of six suggests an oligarchy

Is not Trump that's significant, its the other five. How many of us know five people whose ancestors owned slaves?

I'd bet you don't know five people who aren't descended from slave owners.

Slavery has been around at least 4000 years. Sumer, Babylon, Persia, Egypt, Israel, Greece, Rome, Africa, the Ottoman Empire, East Asia, the native tribes of North and South America, and other societies all had slavery. Some of the slaves were White Europeans.

Slavery had obtained around the world long before the Duke of Kumasi sold Kunta Kinte to Jewish slave traders on a Ghanan beach.

There were a lot more slaves than slave owners.

That's a good point; I'll have to ponder its mathematical implications.

The South's detractors ALWAYS inflate the number of Southern slave owners by including in that number every member of the slave owner's household. On the other hand, Southerners who believe that higher moral ground is achieved by minimizing the number of slave owners count only the head of household.
