If we look back in history we find very few documented Interracial relationships. But the ones we do find are quite interesting...most people do not know it, but the very first interracial relationship that can be documented comes from the Bible...duh...! Yup, Moses, the greatest of all the old school Hebrew prophets was married to a Black woman. Hey, take that to the bank and deposit it! And unless we want to slip in the great Black Carthaginian general Hannibal (and not Dr. Lecter), who almost brought the Roman Empire to it's knees, the next documented interracial relationship would be Cleopatra with Caesar and Marc Anthony ...hey, don't tell me you believe the real first century Egyptian princess looked like Elizabeth Taylor...lol...(if you believe that, you will also believe that George Washington and Thomas Jefferson did not screw their Black slaves and that Jesus had blond hair and blue eyes...hey, wanna buy a bridge...?)...and we all know how this Black Princess did her thing...but moving on, we don't have any historical documentation of any significant interracial relationship until we get to the New Country and Pocahontas did her thing with either John Smith (if you believe certain myths) and married John Wolfe who later presented her to the English court of King James I who took to her right away...I guess at this point one must wonder how I am categorizing the word 'interracial'...does it mean white with any other nationality or strictly Black with anyone outside the race...me thinks that is a topic for another time...for now anyone who crosses the 'race line' is fodder for an 'interracial relationship'...and the last I looked the three races were Caucasian, white), Negro (Black) and Mongolian (Asian).
But anyway, back the topic at hand...histoy at this point is not real clear as to who crossed the line next although as I afore mentioned, there is much speculation as to George Washington and Thomas Jefferson doing thier thing with thier Black women slaves much as all white southern plantation owners considered it their 'right' to do...hey, how many white people with the last name Washington do you know...and Bill Clinton's middle name is Jefferson and contraty to popular belief, he likes to consider himself the first 'Black' president...lol...I know, I am getting a little off track here.
We need to move up to the 19th century and take a look at Jack Johnson, the greatest Heavyweight boxer of all times (with apologies to Mohammed Alie), whose relationship with white women made the American government chase he and his white wife to Canada to avoide prosecusion make a few new laws to dicourage 'uppity niggers' from messing with thier white women. Against the law for a Black man to marry and f**k a white woman...lol...how dare they...? hey, but they hung Black men for that offense way back then...cut their balls off and stuffed them in their mouth to teach them a lesson...
But here we are now...! with Sammy Davis Jr. the next documented 'aggitator'...one of Frank Sinatra's main boys...but the white man they took one of his eyes out to teach him a lesson after he marraied his wife wife...Sammy does not get the credit due him...I am not sure I would have sacrificed an eye for a white woman, or an woman for that point...but hey, maybe I would have for the right white bitch...(I only date white women...another topic for another time)...
And besides myself...lol...just kidding...(or am I?), we move to the mid 60's where the next 'perprtator would be the late great Jimi Hendrix who had the audacity to photo himself surrounded by a bevy of naked white girls on the cover of his Electric Lady Land album...and we all know the censors rejected that albulm cover. But Jimi was known for his love of the white woman. He flaunted it, he sang about it, he lived it...my hero and the man I have modeled myself after since 1968...Sammy was a little too early but Jimi and myself we right on time...
The 60' and the 70's...'Interracial Hevean'...
to be continued...
