Was she afraid she would be asked to pick it? Probably most of the time this was done by poor whites.

She’s probably one of the few people in NYC that ever saw a cotton plant and knew what it was.

Well, oil is bad so synthetics are out.

Cotton is bad so cotton clothes are out.

She can wear wool, if she can stand the itching if that’s not bad because or *animal cruelty*.

That doesn’t leave her a lot of options to wear to keep warm.

So did mine, and all her sisters, and her mother.

Slaves were tasked with growingvtobacco and indigo, sugar cane and corn, too, among other things, and with raising hogs, salting fish, etc.

She cannot hide from them all.

I’m sure she only wears synthetics and her Nike product line, while mostly synthetics, does have some 100% cotton materials.

How much cotton was she wearing at the time? Did any of it trouble her?
