Starting tomorrow, events are scheduled in NOLA, Montgomery, Nashville, and Raleigh to push back on state legislatures' attempts to silence the voices of black and brown voters. We will not be silenced.
Don’t let the confusion fool you! Louisiana still has major races and amendments on the May 16 ballot—early voting is underway, so make a plan to vote. When we show up, we decide what happens in our communities and who holds power. #Vote #Louisiana #VotingRights #BlackVotersMatter

Janai Nelson: I didn't mince words before the Supreme Court. I'm not going to mince words before you tonight. We have a battle ahead. We lost something absolutely precious, something so many of us didn't even know was the glue holding our multiracial democracy together, the Voting Rights Act of 1965
Ash-Lee Woodard Henderson: So what happened? I'm glad you asked. Yesterday, the Supreme Court eviscerated one of our nation's most sacred civil rights protections...This is an effort to silence the voices of millions of black voters and other voters of color.
Barbara Arnwine: John Lewis coined that mighty phrase, Good Trouble! The act of coming together to take peaceful nonviolent action to challenge injustice. The power of collective direct action resulted in the passage of the VRA in 1965 and today that same collective action can protect voting rights
Today, SCOTUS dealt a devastating blow to one of our nation's most sacred civil rights protections, the VRA. Join the No Kings Coalition for an emergency response with leaders from the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, the ACLU, and plaintiffs from the case. RSVP here: www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

Following SCOTUS’s abominable voting rights decision in Louisiana v. Callais, Florida’s Legislature jumped at the opportunity to discriminate with impunity and passed DeSantis’ new congressional map. Other states are now on track to pass racist Alito maps. politi.co/4eRagHS
Florida Legislature passes DeSantis’ redrawn congressional map
The new map, a win for Gov. Ron DeSantis and President Donald Trump, is also destined to trigger a messy legal battle that could play out in both state and federal courts.

The Supreme Court’s ruling in Louisiana v. Callais is not the end of the fight - it is a call to action, and we are answering it. RSVP now for an urgent conversation with legal experts from both the ACLU and LDF, and the clients from the case: www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...
An attack on one of us is an attack on all of us. DFAD proudly stands with SPLC, and for civil rights & the organizations that defend them.
An attack on one of us is an attack on all. This administration uses racism, hate, and fear—openly and repeatedly—as tools of control. We will not be silent. Read our statement: https://bit.ly/4eAqjK0
The Leadership Conference Condemns Attacks on Civil Rights Movement
This administration uses racism, hate, and fear – openly and repeatedly – as tools of control.

55 years in the fight against hate. Still pushing forward. We’re ready for what comes next. Not alone in this work. Together, we will confront injustice. www.splcenter.org/beacon-hope-...
The SAVE Act – which would require documents like a passport or birth certificate to #RegisterToVote –has failed in the Senate. “The ability to vote must be defended every day, and the SPLC will continue to be there.” — Laura Williamson, SPLC Senior Policy Advisor. 🔗: https://bit.ly/3QzWhfr
Let's be clear: The Trump Admin's vendetta against the SPLC is a sign of how impactful their work is. The SPLC has been at the forefront of exposing some of America's most notorious hate groups, like the KKK. The fact that the Trump Admin feels threatened by that speaks volumes.

The head of the civil rights organization said the group was "outraged by the false allegations" leveled against it.
