Representation is not the end, but it matters.

The inequalities Gil spoke about over 50 years ago are still with us today — in fact, the gap has gotten even wider in many cases. Two years ago, when the billionaire space race heated up, his song went viral as people used it to highlight the #WealthGap in America. #GilScottHeron #spokenword

Reporters and pundits need to retire the phrase "voting wars." Expanding voting access is not partaking in a "war." The only war is the one *against* democracy by Republicans and their allies. This is not a "both sides" story, so please do not suggest it is.
