- "Children of the plantation" was a euphemism used during the time of slavery in the United States, to identify the offspring born to black female slaves and white men, usually the slave's owner, one of the owner's relatives, or the plantation overseer. Rape of female slaves occurred on many plantations. These children were born into slavery, through a legal doctrine known as partus sequitur ventrem. They were classified as mulattoes, a former term for a multiracial person. The one drop rule meant that they could never be part of white society. Some of the fathers treated these children well, sometimes providing educational or career opportunities, or manumitting (freeing) them. Examples are Archibald and Francis Grimké, and Thomas Jefferson's children by Sally Hemings. Others treated their multiracial children as property; Alexander Scott Withers, for instance, sold two of his children to slave traders, where they were sold again. Alex Haley's Queen: The Story of an American Family (1993) is a historical novel, later a movie, that brought knowledge of the "children of the plantation" to public attention. Edward Ball's Slaves in the Family (1998), written by a White descendant of slave owners, describes this complex legacy. Toni Morrison wrote that this sexual usage of slaves was known as droit du seigneur, the "right of the lord", a term originating in the feudalism of medieval Europe. (en)
- Le terme enfant de la plantation était un euphémisme utilisé à l'époque de l'esclavage aux États-Unis, pour désigner un enfant né d'esclaves noires et d'hommes blancs, généralement le propriétaire de l'esclave, l'un des parents du propriétaire ou le surveillant de la plantation. Le viol des femmes esclaves était courant dans les plantations. (fr)
- 種植園的孩子，是美國奴隸制度時期使用的一種委婉說法，用於識別被白人強奸奴役的黑奴婦女的後代，通常是種植園所有人或他的兒子的後代，類似中世紀的西歐領主對農奴行使的初夜權。該作法曾經非常普遍，致使現今超過20％的非裔美國人擁有歐洲人的基因。最有名的是美國總統傑弗遜和女黑奴莎莉·海明斯的五個子女。 這樣的孩子通過美國法律原則上他們被歸類為混血兒，也是奴隸，一滴血规则使他們永遠無法成為白人。 少數父親對這些孩子的待遇很好，有時會提供教育或職業機會，但大多數人也與黑人無太大分別(一部分人在19世紀初被遣送到新成立的利比里亞)。 (zh)
