The 2021 list was announced in October and includes two Coast sites: _ For decades before…

One day after the presidential election, and in the days following, Black people across the country, reportedly as young as middle schoolers, received text messages addressing them by name and telling them that they would be transported to plantations to work as slaves and “pick cotton.”While the exact language of the messages vary slightly, most appear to tell recipients that they have been “selected“ or “chosen” to perform cotton picking, i.e. work that was historically performed by enslaved people in the American South. Many were told that they would be picked up by a van and then searched.X contentThis content…
