« It sure gets us to spend time looking at them | Main | Keeping us safe » Write civil rights upside down and then cross out every letterNow that the Supreme Court has thrown out the Voting Rights Act, Slate publishes a pre-VRA literacy test that Louisiana used to keep black people from voting. I know i couldn't get every answer right in the 10 minutes allotted but as Atrios says, the real issue is that you were graded by a white poll worker so it really didn't matter. It's also worth noting that the literacy test wouldn't pass the literacy test. See question #30 for example. By fnord12 | July 1, 2013, 8:41 AM | Liberal Outrage |
