Last week, SCOTUS gutted the Voting Rights Act, attempting to take this country back decades. In the ensuing week, states across the South have raced to redraw maps and wipe out districts representing the promise of the civil rights movement.

Make no mistake, this is the fight of our generation—but the fight is bigger than one state or one ruling. We know there are difficult days ahead, but we won’t back down!
