Al Sharpton to Biden: Black community is being stabbed ‘in the back’

Rev. Al Sharpton hit the stage Saturday during a voting rights rally to tell President Biden that supporters of the filibuster are “stabbing” the Black community “in the back.”

The civil rights activist called on Congress to pass the "John Lewis Voting Rights Act" in a move that he believes would counter state voting reform laws. Republicans have argued that increased regulations around voting secure elections, while Democrats and activists believe that recent state-based legislation targets Black and Brown communities.
