"In her New York Times bestseller White Rage, Carol Anderson laid bare an insidious history of policies that have systematically impeded black progress in America, from 1865 to our combustible present. With One Person, No Vote, she chronicles a related history: the rollbacks to African American participation in the vote since the 2013 Supreme Court decision that eviscerated the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Known as the Shelby ruling, this decision effectively allowed districts with a demonstrated history of racial discrimination to change voting requirements without approval from the Department of Justice. Focusing on the aftermath of Shelby, Anderson follows the astonishing story of government-dictated racial discrimination unfolding before our very eyes as more and more states adopt voter suppression laws. In gripping, enlightening detail she explains how voter suppression works, from photo ID requirements to gerrymandering to poll closures. And with vivid characters, she explores the resistance: the organizing, activism, and court battles to restore the basic right to vote to all Americans as the nation gears up for the 2020 presidential election season"--… (mer)

RGG: Clear, straight forward, compelling. Perhaps a little repetitive. Reading Interest: 13-YA.

Voter suppression is a strategy used to discourage or prevent individuals and/or entire groups from voting. Intended to influence the outcome of an election, tactics include both mental and physical intimidation. Voter suppression is illegal, but it still occurs in the United States and around the world.

My eyes were opened about the recent history of voter suppression. With a little history of voting rights in America, most of the work focuses on more contemporary history from 2000 to present with heavy emphasis of the results of overturning the voting rights act. The book concludes with a chapter about the resistance using the 2017 Alabama Senate special election as a case study. (

This is a good book if you want to teach about bias but has absolutely nothing to do with the reality of voting; just a soapbox. (
