I think in elementary school I was taught that Jefferson "fell in love with a slave" but it was framed as a positive trait, proving he's not that racist. The fact that he had 6 kids with her and enslaved them until his own death was not mentioned. This is probably common knowledge around here but wtf that's probably one of the most evil things you can do

    There was a romanian book about roma slaves in romania and it mentioned about how common it was for slavemasters to impregnate the women when they didn't feel like going through all the trouble of buying a new slave... some humans are just irredeemable
