Comment on voter suppression in the US

Hello,

Your topic is super interesting and very prescient with the elections in the US just around the corner. The subheadings you chose are relevant and do a great job of delineating the grounds along which people experience voting discrimination in the US. I think now that you've written about discrimination because these one-dimensional categories, you can incorporate some intersectional analysis to show what groups are particularly disenfranchised. An example that you might consider is how minority persons who have been involved with the criminal justice system -specifically black men who are overrepresented in the prison population- are systematically disenfranchised because of the injustices built into the criminal justice system. I don't have specific numbers but I'm quite sure that black men are several-fold more likely to be successfully prosecuted than white men for the same crimes and tend to receive longer, more severe sentences.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the help! I have added a part about felon disenfranchisement and how is disproportionately affects African Americans and those from low-income families.
