What do you get when you mix a black guy with an octopus? I dunno either, but it can sure pick a lot of cotton!
What are you implying about black people?
It's just a joke, it has no deeper meaning.
I don't think making jokes about slavery, and implying that black people pick cotton are good things. These kinds of comments are really dehumanizing, and lead to people treating black people poorly. I think it would be good to do some research on slavery, and how the effects of it are still being felt, before making any more jokes like that.
