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. [8] The Robstown community continues to show pride in the name although there is an abundance of controversy in the subject.
