The Leftover Scrap of Voting Rights Act in Flames, Again
How Liberal Whites Again Constantly Do Nothing for Black Americans
Sorry, I’m a bit upset about this latest decision to destroy black American voting rights of 1965. At least I get to experience some real history. Biden didn’t have time to pass the John Lewis Bill. Does he really represent tepid white liberals who can’t make a passionate effort to protect black voters? I’m afraid so. It’s been a long odyssey for them of constantly avoiding and ducking black power.
But they might have to face it again. It looks very clear now in hindsight, again, that America has had to rely on black Americans being active to protect democracy. Maybe the white liberal illusion of doing something against the violent and ceaseless attack will finally be destroyed. Biden’s polls are already precipitously dropping with black Americans, so there’s hope they will finally break off and have real democracy loving people follow them.
Here’s what just happened. Here’s how the article in NYTimes describes this latest blow to Black Vote Matters people:
“A federal appeals court moved on Monday to drastically weaken the Voting Rights Act, issuing a ruling that would effectively bar private citizens and civil rights groups from filing lawsuits under a central provision of the landmark civil rights law.”
