This story has been passed down for years in my family's history, of course the sex part has been added but then again sex between the white master and female slaves did take place.

By the 1820's the importing of slaves was illegal in the US, but there was still selling [auctions] up to the time of the war. When there was a female mulatto they were often sold since they were mostly the offspring of a slave and her master. This is a story of one such young girl who was shipped to the slaves auction at Charleston SC.

Since this story was written I have visited some restored slave auctions houses and it must have been terrible to be chained and shown off as an animal. This is part of our history both white and black America and we should never forget it.

The time was around the 1830's.

There was five female each of the girls was chained to a collar on their necks. All the girls were about the same age with budding breasts and their curves just starting to show. Each of them had the coloring of their dark mothers and were mixed with their white father-masters. Once they had developed the curves of young womanhood they were ship off to the markets to be sold. At this age they were young and ripe and would fetch the highest price. Jamal had been ship from the plantation down in Alabama, the only home that she had known. The girls were put into pins, not much larger then the stalls of animals. These pins where were small, hot, dirty, and smelled of sweat and other human odor.

Each girl knew that they were to be shown and then sold, this was their fate. While they were scared they didn't make any noise since the overseer had told everyone to be quite or they would taste the whip. And it was a rare slave who had not tasted the whip.

Each of the links of chains held a group of slaves that was alike. The auction started. Old white hair males and females were the first out, then the small children, many had yet to be weaned from the tit. The girls held each other as they listen to the auction. They knew that their turn to be sold was coming soon, and they knew that their fate would be to serve a new master and do his or her bidding.

Jamal and the other girls heard the footsteps of the overseer, "Alright, get you'll sorry asses up. It's your turn next."

The girls were lead out of the stall and into open room of the building. They saw the large wooden stand, where they were to be shown and sold. The height was just about their head level. They were led up the steps and their moves were watched by a sea of white faces.

The auctioneer called out,"this here is a fine bunch of female flesh, each untouched and ready for your pleasure."

There were so many white faces, more they had ever seen before, and they laughed at the joke. The first girl was taken off the hook and taken to the center. She stood there afraid to move.

The auctioneer stood beside her holding her arm. He turned her around so everyone could get a look at her. He told the whites about her history. Then with one quick motion he ripped her single smock off exposing her young body to everyone. Jamal stood there looking at what was happening; knowing soon she would be standing there and being judged. The auctioneer took his walking stick and rub it up and down her body. Hands turn the poor frighten girl around again, so everyone could see her.

Voices started calling out their bids on the poor girl. Jamal could only watch as the girl was sold. She felt sick as hands now released her from the chain. Now she stood on the stand. The auctioneer grab her and made her turn. She felt his hand rub down her backside and over her firm round ass, as he talked about her. Again she was turn to face the sea of white faces. She felt another hand on her, but this time the man grab the cloth and rip it off of her exposing her body to all.

She felt the eyes upon her flesh. She had never been so exposed before so many men before. The same stick that had been used on the first girl now touched her. As the auctioneer talked he rub her breasts with it. Her nipples harding to both the touch and cool air.

Then he went down her flat belly, and as he touched the hair between her legs she gave a jump. Voices quickly called out their bids. Once all the bidding stopped the auctioneer called out "sold." She had been bought!

A rope was placed around her neck and she was taken from the platform to a table. There a old white man was handing the slave trader some money. The old man was handed the rope. He jerked the rope and lead her away just as if she was a dog. She was ordered to get into the back of a wagon. There was four others slaves, each chained by the ankle to a hook in the bottom of the wagon. Jamal was chained like the rest. The wagon was driven by a old white hair slave. He told them to sing as the old master was close behind in his fine carriage. As they sang, he told them was was to happen to them.

The old master had bought them for his grandson. His grandson had just bought some land and built a house and he needed some labor to clean the land off and farm it. The white hair woman and man would take care of the house, and crops when harvested. The two young boys, both about ten years old and Jamal would work the land. Then when the boys were older they would fill Jamal's belly with a new crop of slaves.

Once they got to their new home they were taken off the wagon and lined up. Their new master came out. His hair was light in color and his eyes were as blue as the sky. His shirt was white and his pants and boots, which came almost to his knees, were black. He looked each of the slaves up and down. "Thank you grandfather, they are very fine looking group," he said. "Now I'll name you," he said.

"You," he said pointing to the old man, "You'll now O'Pappy." Then to the old woman, "I'll call you O'Mammy, you two can sleep together if you wish." Then he looked at Jamal and said, "I think I'll call you Cleo, which is short for Cleopatra." And just like that Jamal had a new name.

The rest of the day Cleo worked with the two young boys, Jack and Mike. As it was getting dark the master, who had also been working the fields said it was supper time. Cleo was starving since she had eaten only some berries that she had found. They were taken to the house. O'Mammy had been cooking and the smell of food made their mouths water.

The young master was brought his supper and they eat in the kitchen. After his supper the master told O'Mammy to heat some water for his bath and for O'Pappy to fill the tub. Once the bath was ready he told O'Pappy, O'Mammy, Jack, and Mike to go to the slave room where they was locked in for the night.
