The Name Controversy 💡

The name “Picnic” has recently sparked debate due to the negative historical connotations that some people associate with the term. The word “picnic” originally comes from the French word “pique-nique,” which referred to an informal outdoor meal, seemingly innocent in itself. However, there is a widespread, but incorrect, claim that the term "picnic" in the United States was associated with racist lynching events in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. 🤔
