Description
Youtube features a 2020 video, produced by the Washington Post, that provides an opinion piece on how voter suppression has evolved throughout the years since the enactment of the 15th Amendment--which prohibits the denial of suffrage to any United States citizens based off of race. Themes include: different ways voters have been suppressed throughout the United States's history, the legislation that has been passed by Congress in an attempt to limit the influence of states over voter rights, and how the recent American political atmosphere has influenced the rights of voters throughout the country.
