She can just apologize and move along. Unfortunately she hasn’t, and she gave her opponents material to use - a southerner

A southern expression? The same region that’s literally built on racism 🫩

Lived in the south my entire left, went to a state school in the south, never in my life have I ever heard this expression.

Don’t be shy. Explain what it means. Explain the term. Share to the class, please. What does ‘cotton-picking’ mean? What’s the implication of someone who picks cotton and why is it a negative term? Use your reading comprehension and media literacy skills.

And this is why I can’t stand the north a lot. Even though I’m not even of the north or south.

I’m tired of white people always having to apologize when people accuse them of racism for no reason. It’s ridiculous

I’ve also lived in the south my whole life, grew up hearing this phrase all the time. Took me until my 20s to realize it is in fact racist at least in its origin.
