The name Saartjie is not a humiliation but a term of endearment - like Johnny, or Debbie. My mother, was called Hettie (and sometimes Hettietjie) even though her name is Hester. Everything else you said is true.

This is definitely NOT the story we were told. After leaving the circus she was talked into prostitution by the very same doctor that stole her remains. She died of syphilis and was infested with many other sexually transmitted diseases. The doctor not only said she was intelligent but described her as “pretty” and lively... however still compared her to orangutans apes and monkeys. She was put on display not just for having a big butt but also an elongated labia (she did not suffer from a rare disfigurement... many of us have large butts and labia ) her figure was not at all uncommon. Her parents did not die but fought to bring her hime according to SA history. Also according to SA history she never became “involved” with anyone (our tribes have honor systems). She and her family were told that her beauty would make her rich and famous... nothing to do with being a Guinea pig for scientist. She was 25 when she died in 1815. The fight for her remains to be brought back to SA began in the 1890s and was ignored by France. once President Nelson Mandela made a formal request in 1998 (which at that time her casted body and skeletal remains were still on display) the French agreed, only because of the national attention the subject gained. It was in 2002 that she was finally brought home.

Thank you Forgotten History for sharing her story with us. I have the highest reverence and respect for folks who, like yourself, give voice to the voiceless and help give dignity and value to the lives of people who, like Ms. Baarton, died in misery never knowing just how significant and valuable she was in her own right as a woman. I wish she knew how many people throughout the world would one day know her name and hold nothing but love and compassion and respect for her. It makes me sick to think about how many "Sarah Baartons" there were and still are whose story will never be told and whose names will never be known. I cried when I watched this and reflected on the cruelty my ancestors inflicted upon not only Black people but upon all people of color as well as fellow white people who were marginalized for various differences that did not reflect the "proper" white society. I must say, however, that the way my forebears treated Black people from the very beginning times of antiquity all the way through to this very day has been the most brutal, barbaric and disturbing crime against humanity ever committed. I come from down here in the rural remote outskirts of Alabama where the attitudes and ideologies of my neighbors as well as even among some of my own family members haven't changed much since the antebellum days before the end of slavery. I have never been able to even imagine relating to their social psychology much less understanding any of the "rationale" they use to justify their hatred and gross ignorance. That's why I've committed myself to absorb as much knowledge I can about the thousands of men, women and children my family exploited, tortured, kidnapped, raped and murdered and whose pain and misery we profited from. Every luxury and opportunity I've enjoyed during my 22 years on this planet has been due to the sweat and tears and blood of Black people and I decided long ago as a child that I was not going to silently reap the benefits of their degradation and dehumanization without giving back in every way I can to every single one of them as well as their descendents - many of whom reside right here up the way in the so-called "Black side" of town. I want to give voice and visibility to the people my forebears owned and exploited as chattel property and whose descendents continue to suffer the abuse, disadvantages, inequalities and discrimination which permitted my family to live relatively comfortable lives for 236 years. White privilege is a humiliating and shameful reality that is extremely painful to acknowledge but it is REAL and despite my denouncing and rejection of it, I am just as much a recipient of it as my racist, ignorant snooty relatives. Anyway, sorry for my lengthy rant. It's just that stories like Sarah Baarton's really hit me hard at the core of my soul and enrages me when I think of how I am reaping the benefits of her suffering as well as the suffering of hundreds more. I will make sure every one of my children know the name Sarah Baarton.

Historically, this was so commonplace that anyone who couldn't defend themselves was exploited. She, unfortunately, wasn't alone. Look at Joseph Merrick, for example; how incredibly sad was his life? People will always use others to further their own wealth, status and image. She truly didn't have much choice in the matter, but at least she had it better than many (which isn't saying much.)

I wasn’t aware that Nelson Mandela had her remains returned home to South Africa. What a strong testament to the power of redemption.

Actually, it appears you are not aware of the utter misery of female slaves in America who worked in the Deep South, like Florida. Sara’s life, in comparison, was easy compared to these American slave women working as farm hands. Sara traveled, learned different languages, got a salary, was championed by the anti-slavery well educated. In pictures it looked like she was fed fairly well, and she insisted on wearing some clothing when on stage. She only went on stage one time completely naked. Why are we so offended by this woman’s lack of clothing, it certainly doesn’t seem to offend people today when Cardi B goes on stage simulating sex, with barely any clothes on. I think there was more to Sara than we give her credit for. She wasn’t just a mindless robot. She was intelligent, and she knew her life had meaning apart from her time on stage per slavery where she was viewed as a freak. Sara’s spirit, dignity, courage, intelligence, and honor is being overlooked here!

Evil "people" made her life a living hell! She must have felt so alone and lost! Truly so sad 😔

Thank you FL, enjoyed the story. She was a better person than all those who treated her so harshly with no respect for her as a another human being. It was a good thing what Mandela did taking her home .

Some of you may remember that Beyoncé purchased the movie rights to Sarajite Baartman life story approximately 4 years ago and had planned to play the title role. Many people felt that the singer/actress was not an appropriate fit for this very important story. I was lucky enough to view a movie made before the Beyoncé controversy of her life (sorry cannot remember the title) but the actress that played Sarajite seemed to have a British background. The story was told in a way that revealed the characters struggles but also showed the few occasions when Sarajite stood up for herself and at times outsmarted the individuals that mistreated her. It was very well done. This KZread video provided all the important points of this tragic story. Again. thank you for telling Sarajite story.
