Summary

Hawk pulls no punches in this sharp political commentary on the state of voting rights, racial representation, and what Republican policies in 2025 and 2026 actually signal about the people who support them. Red state legislatures across the South are racing to dilute Black representation in the House of Representatives through aggressive gerrymandering, and Hawk argues the label "the South" no longer applies — the Confederacy is the only accurate term.
