A Loudoun County, Virginia, teacher has come under fire after having students handle a raw piece of cotton during a history lesson that touched on the invention of the cotton gin and slavery.
The history lesson took place on Dec. 5 at Riverside High School in Leesburg.
As part of a discussion on cotton, the teacher passed a sample of raw cotton among the students, some of whom became upset.

Yet most if not all of those poor traumatized students were wearing clothing manufactured overseas by slave or child labor, but that's okay, right?
Upset?! None of these foreign brats, nor their parents, have ever picked cotton! This problem wouldn't exist if our ancestors followed through with using America's colony (Liberia) as a solution after the Civil War.

The first slaves were brought here to work tobacco. So he should have passed around a pack of Kools instead.
