[lbo-talk] Making it harder to vote

[wrobert at uci.edu]

This is one of those occasional points where I'm a bit disappointed in
Carrol.  You're absolutely right to see the attempt to disenfranchise poor
and working people as part of a larger offensive against organized and
unorganized working class power.  Just as significantly, it legitimates
itself (the act of disenfranchising voters) through the logic of white
supremacy and reinforces that logic (It's difficult to avoid the logic of
Fox's anti-blackness in its continual rerunning the footage of the
so-called New Black Panthers.)  robert wood
