Jim Crow Won

I don't have the fortitude to write about this right now, so I'm just going to borrow fengi 's words.

Originally posted by fengi at Jim Crow WonGodamnit. The case was brought by states run by fucking racists who are openly trying to restrict the vote now, the fact they brought a case was evidence to uphold the law.

It doesn't matter if the list was decades old, the places on it have not changed in terms of the bigotry which informs voter suppression as a form of control. Open, brazen racism isn't the issue, the politics of discrimination are.

Fuck shit stack.
