If you’ve never picked cotton, I invite you to give it a shot, just one little bush.
Aren’t they fluffy?! See the brown bit? Those are hard and pointy. Had one slide 1/2" under my skin, never even had a pocketknife do that. BTW, you can’t get all the cotton without really getting your fingers in there. Now imagine bending over and having to go fast under master’s whip.
Got your cotton bolls? Good. Now get the seeds out. Dare ya. Oh, and don’t waste any cotton!

Enough depressing stuff, have a laugh about the racist field trip.
