In-Depth
Voter ID laws are not racist, the talking points are.
In most US states, low income families are given options to receive FREE or greatly discounted Identification Cards/Driver’s Licenses. This means that poor people can get a voter ID without paying for it themselves.

Minorities are not uneducated idiots. They get the same education every other American who attends public school receives.
