LINK Virginia first lady handed out cotton to African-American children on slave cottage tour, mother says - CNNPolitics
Cringe. WTF is WRONG with the NORTHAMS??? I've met both of them. They appear to be normal, intelligent, nice people and then each of them do really blind stupid sh%t like this? I mean, what the what? And where are their ADVISORS to gently say...DON'T HAND OUT COTTON TO AFRICAN AMERICANS ON A TOUR OF SLAVE COTTAGES??? (Unless you are going for that Hobby Lobby optics.....)

I remember hearing a storytelling podcast in which the comic recounts his experience of going to the same sort of place and being handed the same shit as a child on a school trip. Apparently it’s a long-standing tradition for white people to find more and more subtle ways to be horrible.
