great guy
He lived and died by the black man
''His kind of woman'' 1951 and ''Macao'' 1952 both with Robert Mitchum, they never had an affair but remained good friends.
She repented of her sins, and turned to Jesus, used to have bible studies. On his death her old friend Robert Mitchum wanted to talk to her, she went to his house with her husband. I believe the talk was about salvation.
😅
😅
That's not her. Sally had straight red hair and was pale per descriptions .
In the early 1960's, Lee Majors worked as an extra in a low-budget film, and he even worked as a film stuntman before he got into acting for TV and movie career.
Thank you!
That's a man

I love her❤.😊
This is the most accurate of all these portrayals.

I appreciate that the producers of this video did not fall for the fallacies of Jefferson scholars, like Annette Gordon-Reed, and those who work for the Thomas Jefferson Foundation (Foundation). For 150 years historians denied that the sexual liaison between Sally Hemings and Thomas Jefferson. In the year 2000 the movie Sally Hemings was viewed by 20 million Americans on CBS. Leading historians and the Foundation partly capitulated. They recognized the liaison, but still denied that Tom was the son of either Hemings or Jefferson. First the history then the DNA Newsman James Callender wrote an article for a Richmond newspaper, Sept. 1, 1802. He wrote T.J. had a concubine named Sally. Sally had a son named Tom - 12 years old. Callender said that she had more children, but Callender never named them. Historians like Annette Gordon-Reed (Pulitzer Prize) say that the baby died soon after being born. Think about it. The baby was born in 1790 right after they returned from France. If the baby died, then why was Callender writing about him in 1802? Somebody has a bogus story. Also, in 1802 a man named Thomas Gibbons wrote a letter to a politician saying that T.J. and Sally gave birth to Tom, Hariot, and Beverly. If the baby died why was Gibbons writing about him in 1802? The newspapers never named the other two kids, so Gibbons had his own info. The 1870 U S census for Jackson Co. OH indicates that Thomas Woodson was born in 1790 in Virginia. He owned a 382-acre farm in Ohio; he and his wife Jemima raised 11 children including Sarah Jane, who was the first black American to teach at a historically black college or university. The Woodson family has never lost its history. Fawn Brodie’s Jefferson biography sold 350,000 copies in 1974; Barbara Chase -Riboud’s novel Sally Hemings sold over one million copies in 1979. The movie Jefferson in Paris was screened coast to coast in 1995. Historians such as Joseph Ellis started calling for DNA tests in 1997. Jefferson historians have never excepted the evidence in Brodie’s book. Those historians don’t like the historic record. Byron Woodson was one of the DNA donors. He is a first-hand witness. Dr Foster, the testing organizer, promised the DNA donors that historians would be kept away from the DNA process. Historians had never handled the history honestly, so the donors wanted them kept away. The testing and laboratory work may have been perfect, but the reporting was hijacked by historian Joseph Ellis and others. Dr. Foster was distraught when he learned that he had lost control. After Woodson learned that things had gone astray, Foster answered Woodson's pointed questions honestly and never failed to answer the telephone. Foster did not know Ellis. When Ellis and news outlets, like U. S. News and World Report were preparing a media dump, Foster thought the DNA results were still secret. (B. Woodson, A President in the Family, 2001, 221-29) Ellis appeared as the star of a massive multi-media media dump, reporting the reputed DNA results Nov. 1st and 2nd 1998. Ellis appeared on PBS News Hour Nov. 2, 1998, announcing "...the scientific evidence that we have now generated." Again, DNA donors had been promised that historians would be kept away from the process, knowing of their untrustworthy track record. Foster sent a letter objecting the handling of the matter to Nature (magazine) and the Washington Post reported that Foster had issued a written objection. (Leef Smith, WAPO, 1/6/99) Foster told Woodson, "I don't know," when his project was breached, thus Foster did not know if the Nature article reported the actual results or not. Ellis was later embroiled in a scandal which forced him out of his teaching job for a year and caused him to admit that he is a habitual liar. (Cox, Chronicle of Higher Education, 7/13/2001) The Thomas Jefferson Foundation embraced a hijacked DNA report announced by an admitted habitual liar. Is that best practices?
