There is a coordinated effort to suppress the votes of Black folks. SCOTUS weakened the Voting Rights Act in their Louisiana v. Calais decision, and redistricting has papered over majority-Black districts.

However, courts have prevented the Trump administration from limiting mail-in ballots, and there are measures to be taken to restore and protect our right to vote.

Join Bakari Sellers and guests for this special bonus segment from the NAACP’s 117th National Convention.

GUESTS

Kristen Clarke – NAACP General Counsel

Don Leonard Scott Jr – Virginia State House Speaker
