Washington, November 12 (RHC)-- In the U.S., the FBI is investigating a spate of racist text messages targeting Black Americans in the wake of Trump’s election victory.  

The text messages were reported in states including Alabama, Missouri, the Carolinas, Michigan, Texas, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia, telling recipients they were “selected to pick cotton at the nearest plantation.” 

The NAACP condemned the messages, warning Trump’s election has emboldened hate groups.
