"A servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren." So reads
Noah's curse on his son Ham, and all his descendants, in Genesis
9:25. Over centuries of interpretation, Ham came to be identified
as the ancestor of black Africans, and Noah's curse to be seen as
biblical justification for American slavery and segregation.
Examining the history of the American interpretation of Noah's
curse, this book begins with an overview of the prior history of
the reception of this scripture and then turns to the distinctive
and creative ways in which the curse was appropriated by American
pro-slavery and pro-segregation interpreters.
