August Sabac el Cher was an early Afro-German who had at least one descendant in 21st century Germany. August, though not yet named that, was given to Prince Albert of Prussia as a boy in 1843[1] when the Prince was in Egypt. August grew to be embraced as a Prussian and married a white woman.[2] His son Gustav became a respected soldier and an imperial bandmaster.[3]
