Voting Rights Then and Now

Exploring how voting rights in the United States have evolved from the protections established by the Voting Rights Act of 1965 to the legal and political battles taking place today. Eri and Laura examine the history of voter suppression, the impact of major court decisions such as Shelby County v. Holder, and the ongoing debates over redistricting, election administration, and access to the ballot box. The conversation focuses on a larger question facing many Americans: whether concerns about voting rights stem from weakened protections, declining trust in institutions, or a combination of both.
