Science in Black and White How Biology and Environment Shape Our Racial Divide by Alondra Oubre, 2020
This unflinching expose of racially biased research--the Alt-Right's "scientific wing"--debunks both old and emerging claims of inborn racial disparities.

#Louisiana v. Callais — a 2022 map w/ 1 majority-Black district was ruled to violate the #VotingRightsAct. The new map, drawn w/ 2 majority-Black districts, was challenged by a group describing themselves as “non-African American” who contend it was unconstitutional racial #gerrymandering. The state says it drew the map not due to #race but to protect #Republican incumbents, such as #House Speaker #MikeJohnson & Rep Julia Letlow, who sits on the House #Appropriations Cmte.

The 12 years spanning 1957 to 1968 were a period of great societal tumult & revolution, especially over #race & the #VietnamWar. Of the 8 deployments, 2 were to enforce #desegregation court orders, most famously at #LittleRock, #Arkansas, in 1957. 4 were to quell riots, 3 of which were part of the numerous outbreaks across the country that followed the #assassination of #MartinLutherKingJr in 1968.
