@therootnews: A Louisiana resident who identified himself as Marshawn delivered a fiery, emotional speech to lawmakers during a state Senate hearing over redistricting Monday, accusing Republicans of trying to “cheat” Black voters out of political power. “The MAGA party is the last breath of the Confederacy,” he told lawmakers. “If y’all could give us less than zero seats, you would do it.” Marshawn’s testimony came as Louisiana Republicans advance a new congressional map after the Supreme Court weakened key protections in the Voting Rights Act. “There will be no more of your party,” he said. “The midterms gonna come, y’all gonna get wiped out,” he said. #Louisiana #VotingRights #BlackVoters #Redistricting #MAGA
