"New York City Stands With The South" Rally For Voting Rights
L. Joy Williams, President of the New York State NAACP Conference of Branches and host of the #SundayCivics Podcast, speaks at a rally with current and former local and federal elected officials, activists, and supporters at the ''New York City Stands With the South'' rally for voting rights in front of the Thurgood Marshall Federal Courthouse in downtown Manhattan on May 26, 2026. The rally follows the Supreme Court decision in Louisiana v. Callais regarding Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. Southern states have moved to pass redistricting laws affecting majority Black districts through political gerrymandering. The event aims to show solidarity between New York City and Southern activists after the ''All Roads Lead to the South'' protests in Selma and Montgomery, Alabama. (Photo by Melissa Bender/NurPhoto)
