Well I'm from the South, been around cotton harvesting and black people in the fields in my youth and worked in Civil Rights as an adult and I've heard probably hundreds of racial slurs but that is one I missed. For purpose of this blog, cotton picking, is a technique of harvesting and nothing more, and yes, I have picked cotton and pulled bolls and I can't recomend either one.drlobojohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16167065726194359838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2508594323182473801.post-79344038799973486032010-07-26T20:14:00.374-07:002010-07-26T20:14:00.374-07:00Well, I may have to go find a "live"one...Well, I may have to go find a "live"one somewhere to get the info I need.drlobojohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16167065726194359838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2508594323182473801.post-47975282663475633922010-07-26T18:49:38.833-07:002010-07-26T18:49:38.833-07:00Good stuff!
