* There are more black adults in prison today than were slaves in 1850
* More black men today are disenfranchised than in 1870
* Today felon disenfranchisement laws accomplish what poll taxes and literacy tests of the jim crow era ultimately could not.
* A black child born today has less of a chance of being raised with both parents than a black child born in slavery
