The Voting Rights Act

      The Supreme Court is hearing arguments today in a challenge to a key provision of the act, which was approved by Congress after the Selma-to-Montgomery March in 1965.
     Shelby County in Alabama, and the State, argue that times have changed and that voters are protected now.
     Mark Ridley Thomas writes in a column at HuffingtonPost,

     Alabama says :" Trust us!". Well,  I don't.
