Mississippi house to hold redistricting session at site of Jim Crow era capitol

Mississippi lawmakers are set to redraw state supreme court districts at the Old Capitol Museum, a location with deep ties to the Jim Crow era. This decision, officially due to renovations, raises concerns about its symbolism, especially for the Black community. Critics argue it echoes past injustices and could impact Black voting strength. #Mississippi #Redistricting #JimCrow #Politics #History
