" Add to these, flowing hair, a more elegant symmetry of form, their own judgment in favour of the whites, declared by their preference of them, as uniformly as is the preference of the Oran-utan [orangutan] for the black women over those of his own species. The circumstance of superior beauty, is thought worthy attention in the propagation of our horses, dogs, and other domestic animals; why not in that of man?"

-- Thomas Jefferson, Notes on Virginia[1]

He was a disgusting person who should be relegated to the annals of history, not celebrated with a birthday party like a blood relative.
