ATLANTA — The National Urban League painted a dark picture in its annual State of Black America report.
On the campus of Clark Atlanta University, Urban League President Marc H. Morial argued that lawmakers, consultants and violent extremists — in Georgia and elsewhere — are plotting to "disenfranchise, delude, manipulate and intimidate American voters and establish a one-party rule" that hurts minority voters.
The report, "Under Siege: The Plot to Destroy Democracy," also concluded that despite social and economic gains, Black Americans still get less than 75% of the wealth and other benefits that whites get.
