re: #19 Anymouse 🌹

How the ‘Democratic plantation’ became one of conservatives’ favorite slurs (Goes to the Washington Post, more at the link).

The article traces the use of the slur, research showing Republicans using the slur as far back as 1964 (as in the same year as the Civil Rights Act).

In 2019 Alabama, black voters are definitely on the Democratic Plantation. This time they’re on the other end of the whip.
