This EXCELLENT documentary "Rigged --
a Voter Suppression Playbook" on Republican efforts to suppress the
Democratic black/brown/Hispanic, youth vote is a national emergency
which must be addressed.
It is alarming, but oh so necessary for all who care deeply about
justice and about keeping our nation a democracy by ensuring everyone
has the right to vote. The courts, an often reliable institution for
stemming Republican malevolent voter suppression behavior, have been
severely compromised by the election of Trump. The final nail in the
subversion of democracy is to pack the courts with Republican leaning
justices who will keep the vote rigged. We cannot let them. Listen to
"Rigged" which is an excellent documentary explaining the right wing
efforts funded often by the Koch Brothers and others to ensure whites
remain in power despite changing demographics. Watch and listen then get
involved if you can by doing what you can to defeat this poisonous
anti-democratic force in our nation.
The
entire documentary "Rigged A Voter Suppression Playbook" narrated by
Jeffrey Wright can be seen in its entirety on Prime Video. It will tell
you just how this nefarious playbook works. The accusation by
Republicans of national fraud in elections is a fraud and meant only to
fire up white people to suppress the vote and return to the Jim Crow era. We must not let them.
The
Supreme Court just delivered a noxious decision to declare
gerrymandering legal. This will open up the doors to rigging elections
legally. This decision is as bad as Citizen's United for opening up the
floodgates of corruption money. It is the Dred Scott decision of our
day turning back one man one vote and the 1965 Voting Rights Act. Finally,
we must try no matter how many obstacles Republicans, their allies and
courts place in the way, to meet every requirement no matter how
difficult to register persons of color, students and the young to vote.
Beat these mendacious swine at their own game. Find out what you need
in your state to do to meet the requirements for voting and then do it,
register to vote and then vote. Begin now as November 2020 is closer
than you think and our nation's democracy and its life blood is at stake. RESIST to DUMP TRUMP!
