How voter suppression laws hurt White people
CNN
As Democrats approach a crucial stretch to pass a new voting rights bill, here's a point to remember that most people forget: White people -- not just people of color -- have been some of the biggest victims of voter suppression tactics.
But if you want to understand how these new voter restriction laws also oppress White people, it's more useful to invoke another cultural figure: Wile E. Coyote.
Wile E. Coyote is the Looney Tunes cartoon character whose obsessive quest to catch the Road Runner always backfires. Though he employs an array of outlandish gadgets such as jet-powered roller skates, the coyote's schemes to capture his prey inevitably ends up injuring him instead.
