Mixed Race Studies

Scholarly perspectives on the mixed race experience.

The slaves imported from Africa by no means represented “pure Negro races.” Of the original tribal stocks, many had admixture of Caucasoid genes from crosses with Mediterranean peoples. During the slave trade more white genes were added. The Portuguese who settled on the Guinea Coast had relations with the natives. The slave traders themselves were known frequently to have had promiscuous intercourse with their female merchandise.
