‘They've completed their sentence and they're still disenfranchised from voting’

Four million people won’t be allowed to vote in the upcoming election because of laws in 48 states that restrict your right to vote if you’ve ever been convicted of a felony. Most of the folks affected have already served their sentences. And you can probably guess which race is disproportionately affected by these laws. Nicole Porter is a Senior Advocacy Director for The Sentencing Project. She joins us this episode to share their research on felony disenfranchisement and its origins in anti-Black racism.
