Look up Sally Hemmings.

Sally was Thomas Jefferson's slave/concubine/rape victim. She was also likely Jefferson's legal wife's half sister; Sally was property Mrs. Jefferson brought with her when she married Tom. There was a scandal when one of Sally's descendants, who was probably 1/32nd African, escaped bondage and 'passed' for White.

So much for inherent empathy.
