Inclusive Reading Club: Voter Suppression in the United States Online
With a big election coming in November, we're going to be talking about voter suppression in the United States. Why are some communities disproportionately affected by tactics such as voter roll purges, changes to voter ID requirements, the rigging of rules, and gerrymandering? We'll read excerpts from Stacey Abrams' new book, Our Time is Now, specifically focusing on how the census shapes America, while other selected materials will explore how some communities are confronting acts of voter suppression.
Get started with the readings; also available under Course Reserves on the library's website. Post your comments, anonymously if you'd prefer, on our online bulletin board, and explore other resources and find more information about the IRC.
