When Rape was Legal: The Untold History of Sexual Violence during Slavery. ~ Rachel A. Feinstein

When Rape was Legal is the first book to solely focus on the widespread rape perpetrated against enslaved black women by white men in the United States. The routine practice of sexual violence against enslaved black women by white men, the motivations for this rape, and the legal context that enabled this violence are all explored and scrutinized. Enlightening analysis found that rape was not merely a result of sexual desire and opportunity, or simply a form of punishment and racial domination, but instead encompassed all of these dimensions as part of the identity of white masculinity. This provocative text highlights the significant role that white women played in enabling sexual violence against enslaved black women through a variety of responses and, at times, through their lack of response to the actions of the white men in their lives. Significantly, this book finds that sexual violence against enslaved black women was a widespread form of oppression used to perform white masculinity and reinforce an intersectional hierarchy. Additionally, white women played a vital role by enabling this sexual violence and perpetuating the subordination of themselves and those subordinate to them.

From Henceforth... We decree and declare the forsaking of hoodies, joggers, and all manner of common wear; we are rooted, sovereign in our essence, adorned in cultural regalia, African prints, and sumptuous traditional sets. And our Queens, yoga pants are no fit for their majesty—behold them in glory: Kaftans, Bubus, Dashikis, heritage cascading over their resplendent forms. Rich African energies flow, steeped in style and consciousness, palm wine cradled in hand, puff puff gracing the platter, herbal teas steeped with care, roasted nuts and sumptuous fruits. This is no fleeting fashion, no ephemeral whim—it is our way, our lineage, our birthright. We walk in our roots, cloaked in ancestral dignity, African pedigree, majestic Black legacy. Every stitch, every hue, every intricate pattern—Black excellence incarnate. That is who we are: regally, proudly, richly African.

DEFINITELY NOT GONNA HAPPEN IN ANOTHER 400 YEARS! Y'ALL LOVE THEM WIPIPO SUIT AND TIES...LMFAO 😂

“'Negro' is an interesting word. This country could not call us Africans, because if it had, we would have understood some things about ourselves. We would not have been this 'Negro America', constantly enslaved even after slavery. It would have given us a sense of continuity. So, they had to say 'colored' and 'Negro' and 'nigger' to keep us in our place- to remind us that we were only from this country.”

---Sonia Sanchez, circa 1999.
