[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't care for the name of this wine, due to the fact that this was a term used to describe slaves that were hung from trees. I will not purchase it for that reason and will discourage others from buying it as well. Do your homework , because I don't think the black community will appreciate this label. I will do everything I can to make them aware of it going forward.[/quote] Geez. That is not the only meaning and only you seem to be aware of it. [/quote] I’ve heard the term “strange fruit” used to refer to lynching victims. There is an anti-lynching protest song by Billie Holliday by that name. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/strange-fruit-history-legacy-1030942/amp/ “Low hanging fruit” is a term that is used to refer to fruit that is easy to pick. It’s been expanded to refer to anything easily accomplished. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/low-hanging%20fruit[/quote]
