This Day in Legal History
On 6 August 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act into law, guaranteeing voting rights for black citizens.
A point worth considering seeing this election year sees the first black citizen of the United States garnering the nomination of a major political party in the US for President.
