Sadness in America

Supreme Court guts key part of landmark Voting Rights Act | Reuters

A sad day for America.  If one is to believe that the long struggle for equality at the polls is over then one must suppress credulity.  There are attempts in many states, most recently in Alabama and Texas, to place hindrances at the doors of the polling places.  Indeed, it seems we must continue singing the old songs of struggle.  We can only trust that the "better angels of our natures" will furnish people who are outraged at this spectacle of discrimination.  In the memory of the great struggles that led to the Voting Rights Act here is a song of that time.
