Virginia First Lady Criticized For Giving Out Cotton

(Richmond)- Virginia’s First Lady is being criticized for handing out cotton to an African-American student last week.  An eighth grader said it was beyond inappropriate when Pam Northam gave the cotton to a Senate page and asked them to imagine being enslaved.  The First Lady says she regrets upsetting anyone.  A governor spokeswoman claims that Northam wasn’t singling any one page out.
