President Joe Biden used the memories of Selma’s “Bloody Sunday” to recommit to a cornerstone of democracy, lionizing a seminal moment from the civil rights movement, the AP reports. Among those sharing the stage with Biden were the Jesse Jackson, Martin Luther King III and the Al Sharpton.
“Selma is a reckoning. The right to vote … to have your vote counted is the threshold of democracy and liberty. With it anything’s possible,” Biden told a crowd of more than 1,000 people seated on one side of the historic Edmund Pettus Bridge, named for a reputed Ku Klux Klan leader. “This fundamental right remains under assault. The conservative Supreme Court has gutted the Voting Rights Act over the years. Since the 2020 election, a wave of states and dozens and dozens of anti-voting laws fueled by the ‘Big Lie’ and the election deniers now elected to office,” he said.
Non sense.
Wait, blacks have a right to vote? When did this happen???
Joe is a race hustler. Joe is inciting the dregs of society to go out and attack whitey.
Joe is turning America into black news domination. The jerk never went to East Palestine so he could march across a bridge? He knows there is freedom for all legal voters. Blacks are not suppressed.
They are already ready to remove the Massachusetts flag because it is ‘too white’. I expect there to be cv’s bigger movements to change the American flag.
Yeh yeh. We know. We know.
Black – good
White – evil racist homophobic bigot.
If we can only rid this country of white people, life would be perfect.
