Supreme Court Curbs Use of Race in Drawing Voting Districts
Video Overview & Insights
The US Supreme Court limited the use of the Voting Rights Act to create predominantly Black or Hispanic election districts in a major constitutional ruling that buttresses Republican efforts to keep control of the House in this year’s midterms and beyond.
We often hear about Jim Crow well let's look where Jim Crow came from...Jim Crow was not a person, but a system of state and local laws, mostly enacted by Southern Democrats between the late 19th century and the mid-1960s, that legalized segregation and disenfranchised African Americans. The term originated from a 19th-century minstrel character and came to represent a racial caste system enforcing white supremacy
Voting 6-3 along ideological lines, the justices rejected a Louisiana congressional map that was drawn with a second majority-Black district after a lower court found an earlier map to be discriminatory.
Bloomberg Law Host June Grasso discusses the ruling with Paul Sweeney and Scarlet Fu on Bloomberg Intelligence.
Thank you SCOTUS! I’m Latino and I am happy that we have equality for ALL!! 🎉🎉🎉

It’s crazy to me when well educated analysts describe this as “dismantling voting rights.” All this does is disallow the application of broad racial stereotypes to create monolithic voting blocks. Any provably discriminatory districting is still very much illegal under Equal Protection. This ruling eliminates racialism from our political process, it does not foster it.

The best thing still Trump has ever done was get the SC justices in last time
@Vegasraiders26The SPLC would be proud
@Vegasraiders26Just like the Dems separating people by race 😂😂😂😂
@Vegasraiders26FYI, we can definitely say it's over for the United States. Since we're leaving and going to live in Canada. New York State and especially California should form separate new nations through secession.
@jasonsaville2262Good
@Vegasraiders26FYI Blacks can still vote
@johnallen4030Great job SCOTUS
