The Supreme Court Is Set to Dilute Black Voting Power — Again.


The Supreme Court is once again set to weigh in on whether Black voters deserve meaningful representation in Congress. After more than a decade of anti-democratic, discriminatory decisions, the Supreme Court may now allow South Carolina to gerrymander its districts so that Republicans consistently sweep 6 of its 7 congressional House seats.

By taking up Alexander v. South Carolina State Conference of the NAACP, the Court indicated its blatant intention to further cosign racial gerrymandering and further dilute the voting power of Black and Brown voters throughout the country.
