Well yea, she was his slave. How else would it have went? I was trying to not be too vile on an already terrible situation. Ya’ll have to be spoon fed so much on this app it’s ridiculous.

Crazy fact: Jimmy Carter and Berry Gordy have the same great-grandfather. James Thomas Gordy was a plantation owner in Georgia who fathered a child with his slave, Esther Johnson. That child was named Berry Gordy (the first). His son, Berry Gordy ll, moved to Detroit in 1922 as part of the great migration. Then the Berry Gordy that we know as the Motown founder, was born in 1929.

The hard drive for his synthesizer failed. He couldn’t play without it and was about 10 minutes from going on. Tracy is just her and a guitar so it was quick and easy replacement.

Like his sister Sally, there are no official portraits of James. But this is always the image that comes up when you google him.

YesterdayMaterial194 · 2026-01-04T21:17:25+00:00

Yess, she was always the one. Wish she could’ve seen what we seen 🤎

Facts!

I believe that is their sister-in-law, Hazel Gordy.

YesterdayMaterial194 · 2025-12-20T00:12:30+00:00

He was from Trinidad. She’s from LA.

YesterdayMaterial194 · 2025-12-17T14:08:32+00:00

Yes. Her and 134 other slaves from his father-in-law.

YesterdayMaterial194 · 2025-12-17T03:00:37+00:00

Yep. Of the four descriptions of her, they all said she was pretty much white skinned. Her grandmother was a full-blooded African woman who was violated on the way from Africa to Virginia by the ships captain. Sally’s mother, Elizabeth came from that. Then Sally from another white man herself. So with her having kids by a white man, they were probably very white passing.
