Rachel Belden Brooks (c. 1829–October 12, 1910) was an American pioneer who traveled from Tennessee to the Oregon Territory as a person held as a slave. In 1857, Oregon voters approved the Constitution of Oregon, which made slavery illegal, and also made it illegal for people of African descent to own real estate, make contracts, vote, or use the legal system. Despite this, Belden Brooks continued to be held as a slave until 1863 and in 1865 she used the legal system to sue her previous enslaver's estate, and was awarded $1,000.
