Clotel; or, The President’s Daughter is rooted not only in the horrific reality of institutional slavery but also in the historical fact of Thomas Jefferson’s relationship with the enslaved Sally Hemings (here represented by the character Currer).

Both become Jefferson’s legal property when they are born, and both wind up at auction - along with their mother - when Jefferson dies.
