      Opposing districting that is explicitly designed to lessen the voting power of black people isn’t opposing racism?

      They fully recognize race is a factor. They are only recognizing two distant areas with a high population of black people shouldn’t be one district. If you look at the map it’s grouping two random areas together that’s are not even close and it just happens to be areas with more black people. Democrats recognize race and that it plays a factor in this country, republicans deny race exists and that it plays a factor while designing a system that systematically targets people of color.
