Black people in the USA receive ‘announcement’ on cell phones about the return of slavery

“We are deeply saddened to learn that some of our students have fallen victim to these anonymous texts, and are also concerned that they may have been received by parents or school staff,” the school’s email stated. “These unacceptable messages are highly disturbing and can trigger emotional distress,” he warned.

What happened at my children’s school is not an isolated case. Across the US, black people from several states were surprised by the message on their cell phones in recent days.

In the text, they are supposedly told that they were “selected” to pick cotton and that they needed to report to the “nearest plantation.”

Spokespeople for the president-elect insisted that his “campaign has absolutely nothing to do with these text messages.” But the FBI opened investigations.

For one of the largest entities fighting racism in the USA, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), even if the Trump campaign tries to move away from the episode, the challenge is to have elected a movement that encourages racist attacks .
