Bring Back the Poll Tax! The GOP War on Voting Rights' by Earl Ofari Hutchinson reviewed

Posted: 26-Jul-2021   Reposted: 03-Jun-2022

If one is to go by this book, the political tactics of the Grand Old Party (GOP, or the Republicans) are shameful to say the least. Deeply entrenched in racist politics, though covertly, they deny American Blacks, Hispanics, and minorities the right to vote by employing clever schemes. Although the 1965 Voting Rights Act (VRA) was introduced to address disparity in alleged voting rights issues, GOP found ways to bypass and void it by clever tactics and tricks. In summary, despite the VRA, they keep large numbers of Blacks and minorities out of voting and fashion victories by leveraging the balance (favorable) votes.

Bring Back the Poll Tax! The GOP War on Voting Rights is a rip-off of the GOP’s false mask. It goes deep into the corrupt workings of the Republicans, exposes their ploys and discusses searing counter-attacks to contain them and bring them down to their knees. Presidents Joe Biden and Obama showed how to fight back and prevail in the 2008 and 2012 elections. The same fight needs to be sustained into the future to beat an unrelenting GOP.
