Faith & Politics

Many people don’t even realize this is happening! You can vote. You can care. You can show up! However, if the map is drawn unfairly, your voice can still be weakened and not heard! It’s called racial gerrymandering which is the unconstitutional practice of drawing electoral district boundaries, predominantly based on race, to dilute the voting power of minority communities. By packing minority voters into specific districts or splitting them across several districts, map-drawers diminish the ability of these groups to elect their preferred candidates. Your voice is silenced! Just a reminder: as believers in Christ, your faith can’t be in this wicked political system (see John 18:36). Be encouraged!
