Can Stacy walk through the math of how states with large black populations have so little representation for their black citizens? I feel an undercurrent recently where people are blaming the targets of voter suppression rather than the perpetrators. The 13th amendment, which said slavery should end, except if you were in prison. Then we got the 14th amendment, which gave us birthright citizenship, which they're trying to undo. And the 15th amendment said that you could not prohibit the right to vote based on race, creed, or color. (06:08–06:13)
