This will make you ask questions about the text of XIV Amendment , and try to explain why the Civil Rights !movement NEEDED thyroid Marshall, the Supreme Court, the voting Rights Act of 1965.
Hines does a magnificent job tracing the sequence of Texas court cases required to lead to Smith v. Allright (1944). She also clearly explains what the text of the Constitution does NOT explicitly state...that the XIV Amendment applies To The General Election, but did not apply to the Primaries.
An extraordinary history of black women in America that reminds us all of the power we all have to use our resources to improve our lives and that of our communities. This should be required reading for all Americans.
