Description
Izella Rainer is one of many Black Americans who received a racist text message Wednesday telling her that she was selected to pick cotton on a plantation.
"The first couple words were like slavery, plantation, you're getting sent and I was just like freaking out," she said. Rainer made a video on TikTok that's now gone viral, sharing with her followers what the text messages said. Both messages told her to meet at a certain time and that she was in a certain plantation group.
"It's heart-wrenching, truly heart-wrenching," she said.
