Ham was also a symbol of sexual transgression (based on interpretations that his offense against Noah was somehow sexual and that he was sexually loose in the Ark).
Haynes writes, "Noah's curse was a stock weapon in the arsenal of slavery's apologists, and references to Genesis 9 appeared prominently in their publications." For example, J.J. Flourney, writing in 1838, says, "the fls were originally designed to vassalage by the Patriarch Noah." Even many fls accepted this as their God-ordained state.
Noah's curse re-emerged virulently in the 1950s and 1960s, when southern white Christians used it to justify racial segregation in the face of the civil rights movement.
