No history of racism in America can be considered complete without taking into account the role that George Washington — the principal founding father — played in helping to mold the racist cast of the new nation. Because General Washington — the universally acknowledged hero of the Revolutionary War — in the postwar period uniquely combined the moral authority, personal prestige, and political power to influence significantly the course and the outcome of the slavery debate, his opinions on the subject of slaves and slavery are of crucial importance to understanding how racism succeeded in becoming an integral and official part of the national fabric during its formative stages.
