‘Greetings…You’re Selected To Pick Cotton’: Racist Texts Reported After US Election



After the presidential election in the US, Black men, women, and students received racist text messages invoking slavery. These messages instructed recipients to show up at certain addresses or pick cotton at a plantation. The FBI and other agencies are investigating these messages, which were reported in multiple states. High school and college students were among the recipients, causing alarm and distress. Civil rights organizations condemned the messages, emphasizing that hate speech has no place in society. Law enforcement agencies are working to identify the senders and ensure that such actions are not normalized.
