## Resource

On today’s episode of Politics Nation, host Rev. Al Sharpton opened with a live report from Selma, Alabama — one of the most historic centers of the Civil Rights Movement — where demonstrators gathered to protest Republican-led gerrymandering efforts unfolding across the South. Faith leaders, activists, and political organizers assembled in Selma, Montgomery, and other cities nationwide, warning against what they describe as attempts to roll back decades of Black political progress in order to preserve Republican control of Congress and support President Donald Trump’s political agenda.
