💨 Abstract

Federal and state authorities are investigating bigoted text messages urging Black Americans to report to a plantation to pick cotton, spread across several states. The texts, which have caused alarm, are under investigation by the FCC, FBI, and several state authorities. The messages were also received by Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill. The texts, some of which were sent via TextNow, are being called an "attack" by the service.
