After The Election Black Women Have Been Receiving Racist Texts To Come Pick Cotton On A Plantation!!
Black Americans across the country are reportedly receiving alarming text messages about being selected for slavery amid the 2024 presidential election.
According to Fox 2 , multiple women in the Detroit area received messages on Wednesday (November 6) saying they had been selected to pick cotton.
“Good afternoon Renee! You have been chosen to pick cotton at your nearest plantation. Be ready at 10am with all of your personal items & possessions because you will never see them again,” one text message to a Detroit-area resident read. “We will pick you up in a white bus. You will be checked for drugs & other substances! Once you make it here you will be brought to your designed area. You are in group 10B”.
A second woman received a similar message from a different number, per Fox 2.
“Greetings You have been selected to pick cotton at the nearest plantation. Be ready at 12AM NOVEMBER 13 SHARP with your belongings. Our Executive Slaves will come get you in a Brown Van, be prepared to be searched down once you’ve entered the plantation. You are in Plantation Group D.”
Both text messages were received the day after the presidential election.
Other local outlets across the country have reported similar instances. According to Fox 5 Atlanta , women in the area received similar messages including some about a potential threat from white supremacists and KKK members.
Several individuals in Virginia have also reportedly received racist messages. According to more reports , Black college students at the University of Alabama and Clemson University in South Carolina have been hit with the messages too.
In one message shared on Reddit , a Black American was “selected to be a house slave… after President Trump takes office.”
It’s unclear who is sending the messages. Some social media users speculated that the messages stemmed from efforts from Russia to divide Americans against each other.
