The office of the Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill is actively encouraging individuals to come forward if they have received a racist spam text message stating they have been selected to “pick cotton at a plantation.” This plea for public assistance follows reports of such messages spreading across the ArkLaMiss and beyond. “These types of spam texts are vile, threatening and only intend to divide us,” commented the Louisiana Attorney General’s Office in a statement obtained by FOX 8 Live.
