Controversy

The Robstown Cotton Pickers name has come with some controversy over the years. The name is in reference to Hispanic migrant workers, whose presence and activity have been a noticeable influence on the city’s culture. After influencers such as Kai Cenat visited the school and posted about it on their YouTube channels, it subsequently became a topic of discussion on TikTok and other platforms due to the name, which was construed by some to be racist. The Robstown community continues to show pride in the name although there is an abundance of controversy in the subject.
