Thursday May 7th Meeting #733
Open Forum - Has the South Won?
Lorraine Keed will lead a discussion pertaining to current decisions/actions to the redistricting of voting maps, primarily in the Southern States. Discussion guidance points will be as follows:
1. Was the SCOTUS decision on Louisiana allowing the dismantling of Democratic minority districts due to them being racist maps a correct decision?
2. What’s your opinion on the Virginia Supreme Court permitting a ballot vote by the people to accept redistricting of their maps which proved to be favorable by the voters only to be then overturned by the same Virginia Supreme Court as being an unconstitutional map through a technicality?
3. As a result of court actions in Louisiana and Virginia, other Southern States have halted primary elections etc. to rush through further redistricting of their maps to disenfranchise all Democratic voters but, most assuredly, the votes of all minority citizens in all those states.
4. Do we have far to go to say, "We have now reached Jim Crow 2.0."?
As always, we hope the above questions promote a constructive dialogue for your input/opinions. Obviously, any other questions/opinions that you would like to explore would be most welcome.

Statement on Free Speech
Our constitution and laws encourage the freest possible exchange of opinions, ideas, and information. In part, that recognizes our worth and dignity as human beings. To forbid us to speak our minds demeans us and makes us more like slaves or robots than citizens of a free country. But as important as freedom of expression is for us as individuals, it is perhaps more important to society at large.
