Thousands of demonstrators gathered Saturday in Montgomery, Alabama, for a major rally opposing conservative efforts to eliminate congressional districts that were created to protect Black political representation.
The demonstration took place in Alabama’s capital city, where participants voiced their opposition to attempts by conservative states to dismantle voting districts that have helped ensure African American communities maintain political influence in Congress.
The event drew large crowds to Montgomery, a city with deep historical significance in the civil rights movement, as activists work to preserve electoral representation that took decades to establish.
