Archibald: Supreme Court helps Alabama erase the legacy of Selma - AL.com
Overview
An opinion piece argues the Supreme Court’s recent narrowing of the Voting Rights Act has opened the door for Alabama to redraw congressional districts in ways that undercut Selma’s civil-rights legacy. The article links the court’s new standard to state plans to reshape districts and reduce the likelihood of majority-Black representation. It frames the rulings as part of a broader wave of redistricting moves in Southern states that critics say roll back protections born from the Selma era.
