I've known country people from all different races and cultures. I've known mexican country folks, black people who are country folks, white people, country people from other Native American tribes, I've known a few Asian people in the country. Country people come from all different races, cultures, and walks of life. I've known cowboys, cowgirls, farmers, hunters, mountain men, hippies, bikers, small business owners, mechanics, fire fighters, cops, soldiers, and more. Who are all country people.

That's OUR culture. There are country Black folks who can do ALL of the things spoken about in this song...my father was born around the coal mines of West Virginia and Kentucky..my mother was born in Akron Ohio. She was city, he was country. I grew up in Akron so I was raised in the city but I was brought up to appreciate both cultures. We visited family in Kentucky and Tennessee during summers. My family in the country taught me some of these skills and for that I am so thankful. I moved to the country to be with family about 15 years ago and....I'll never go back to city life...but believe that the country lifestyle is the lifestyle of most people who live in the country and it's not exclusive to any 1 race.

[@MaharaTucker]

Smart comment, Amanda. It's about an attitude of fierce independence and self reliance. It's an understanding that the fragile veneer of "civilization" can fail. This could be during a weather emergency, war, or any other unforeseen circumstance. If supply lines failed, many urban people from all walks of life would be helpless. We tend to stereotype what we can't understand. That's why these conversations are important. When you make the effort to understand a different way of life, you win, and society wins.

As a country raised man here in Tennessee this song speaks to all race of Americans. Where I live there was just as many Black country boys as there was white country boys. What our country faces today is not a White Black battle. It's a Rich Poor battle. What our government doesn't want is a United Group of Americans. Of ALL races. If we have more of a conversation with each other we learn that our differences aren't really there. There is no government fix for a Human problem. We have to be willing to fix the differences.

[@GaRockZombies]

I’ve never heard of”buck” used as anything racial. I have heard it used to describe the male deer or a strong young male or young buck. A buck is, in my eyes, a strong dominant male. I just don’t see how that could be a trigger word. If it is, it is. I would take that as a compliment. I’m older now so my “buck” status has been dropped because there are plenty of young men out there that are strong and dominant. Color of skin has nothing to do with it in my world. Alabama country boy/man here.

[@WonderingWildWanderingRose]

​@@GaRockZombies its use for describing (usually younger) male *animals*/livestock carried over in the slave days, and after slavery, was used to continue to dehumanize black men. It is used to verbally hold them to their inferior place and triggers feelings for generations of maltreatment similarly as derogatorily referring to a man as "Boy" but worse due to the dehumanization and livestock connotations.

[@GaRockZombies]

@@WonderingWildWanderingRosehonestly that sounds like something that needs to be left in the past. I have never heard of it being used as a racial slur. If it triggers someone then they have to deal with that and learn that it’s typically not meant to be degrading. It’s weird how some words can be used as triggers and others are freely used as a “term of endearment”.

When I was growing up in the Sixties and Seventies on a Farm with River Property in West Tennessee. The Hatchie River has never been dredged or bothered in anyway. It is home to so much Wildlife. I was walking by myself hunting or hunting with my cousins at 11 years old. I always had a 20 Guage Shotgun or a 22 mag Rifle and a 22 magColt Peacemaker. We knew how to stay in the woods. Our parents taught us how to know the difference between what you could eat and couldn't as far as Wild Vegetables and Berries. My mom made Muscatine Wine. We canned fresh vegetables from the Garden. My Uncle kept Ham and other meats in a dirt cellar the same way it was done before refrigeration. I can do everything mentioned in this Song. Except make my own wine. I don't drink alcohol except very very rarely and very little if I do. I was driving a farm truck about 12 or before. I drove our two tractors and raked and bailed hay. I know how to kill a hog and clean it. Same with Dear. I never had the chance to learn how to dress a cow though. Staying in the Woods for days was fun and adventuresome as a child, teenager and my early twenties. I could live out there but at 60 I would not enjoy it now.

This song always makes me think of hunting with my dad and uncles & cousins, fishing with my Pap, and drinking beers in truck beds parked out next to the cow pond at a friend's farm. It also reminds me of the hesitancy my people can have toward trusting outsiders, or venturing out of the hills to see what's there - qualities I didn't relate with, and have always tried to do my own thing.

It's amazing to see how much you've grown as a person in 3 years . I've been blessed to be watching you for over 3 to years now

[@MarsellusWallace2024]

I’ve been following you a long time and I’ll tell you this; I live in south Mississippi and we’re not very different. To Southerners, our family and our values are what’s most important. You have all the qualities of a southerner. You’re a humble, God fearing family man. That’s all it is.

This song still gives me chills....

I've never skinned a deer, not many around here except reindeer and 'bou , but I can field dress a moose. Hes right, we are all over this land.❤❤

[@sinboy26]

Can't even imagine packing a moose back to the truck

[@heathermck423]

@@sinboy26 definitely not easy. But worth it. Moose is better tasting than any deer, cow, or reindeer/caribou I've ever had.

My ex boyfriend worked at a slaughter house for deer .. omg it smelled so bad !! And I hated seeing the deer 🦌 like that !!

[@heathermck423]

@@randipearson4930 yikes. Yeah I'm talking about hunting individually. I know they had slaughterhouses for deer but I guess it makes sense. Never thought about it.

We just need to use basic critical thinking and have a basic understanding of people's context. We need to push aside the ignorat ideology of political correctness that sees virtue signaling as a positive thing for society. .
