S. O. Allebaugh letter to Warren G. Harding, October 29, 1920
In this letter dated October 29, 1920, S. O. Allebaugh writes to Senator Warren G. Harding in regards to the rumor that Harding has African American ancestry, some claiming his wife, Florence Harding, and his mother, Phoebe Elizabeth Dickerson, are biracial. Allebaugh asks Harding to make a statement about these rumors, confirming or denying their truth. However, in 2015, DNA testing completed on two living members of the Harding family concluded these rumors are false. The weight of these rumors on white voters' minds demonstrates the racist ideologies of white Americans and the obstacles faced by African Americans pursuing public office. Allebaugh uses the term "mulatto," which is now considered an outdated and offensive term used to describe people with multiracial ancestry, usually white and African American.
