After yesterday's devastating Supreme Court decision in Alexander v. SC NAACP, the fight for our democracy is clearer than ever. “The highest court in our land greenlit racial discrimination in South Carolina’s redistricting process, denied Black voters the right to be free from the race-based sorting and sent a message that facts, process, and precedent will not protect the Black vote.” Janai Nelson, president and director-counsel of the Legal Defense Fund (LDF) The State Infrastructure Fund at NEO Philanthropy SIF will continue to provide consistent, long-term funding, to organize and fight for stronger voting rights and put in place federal voting protections to bring a stop to these attacks on our voting rights. Black voters must have their voices heard and votes counted equally. https://lnkd.in/gy2iVRn8
