Guess Alabama needs to stop growing cotton.

My white ancestors picked cotton as young as 5 years old, until their hands bled. One was killed in a cotton trailer accident as a 7 year old.

I picked cotton at around 4 years old. I also helped to pick up (rake) pecans, and pickEd poke salad on the side of the road. Additionally, I had the added benefit of eating powdered eggs (the eggs from the chickens that we had were sold) and drinking powdered milk. Good times.

The commentator in the video made a good point. The constant reminding of slavery is essentially a form of mind control. Constantly telling blacks, "Your ancestors were slaves" is subtly telling them, "You're a slave, and the white people are to blame."

If you want to create trans-generational animosity, that's how you do it.

My..white.. grandmother picked cotton until her fingers didn’t work anymore as a kid. People are so ignorant.

Edit..also wasn’t even her Airbnb and they booked that for Thanksgiving?

All the while, triggered home girl is wearing a cotton sweater.

George Carlin nailed it when he said “Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.“

And like others have said, my Cajun grandparents picked cotton til their fingers bled.

I bet she's 100% silent on China's actual slave/reeducation camps though.

HOLD UP...she had the urge to pick it, and it's not weird!



Must...pick...cotton!!!

And her comment about the Airbnb having a 'study room' which she deemed unnecessary, but what-ever!

Good grief, it's a HOME! A preexisting structure! And it's just a room! Without a bed! WTF is wrong with people? It's not like ordering at a restaurant and being brought an extra item, for free.

My mom, aunts/uncles, grandparents all picked cotton before grandpa got his first tractor. We're all white.

That's got to be a Bee-type joke. Triggered by a cotton field?

...and now for a musical interlude:
