Black Woman Goes Viral for TikTok Video Twerking in Mississippi Cotton Field
A video of a Black woman twerking in a cotton field in Mississippi has gone viral on TikTok, and many are in stitches over it.
The video appears to be for a TikTok twerk challenge, and the caption under the footage reads, “If TikTok existed in 1860.”
The twerking woman is seen in the field picking cotton while another woman throws cotton on her as if she is throwing cash in a strip club. The woman twerks to the song “No Clappin” by Spiffy The Goat in the video. The song, released in 2022 by the rap artist, is featured on over 50,000 TikTok videos.
