“The Sergeant at Arms blocks Representative Justin Pearson from Memphis from entering a committee meeting about redrawing the map specifically for the district he represents.

A white officer with a badge, blocking a black congressional member, from joining meeting that specifically targets the black district meant to give representation to people of color.

The segregation is alive and well in the south.” - Brian Garlick

@BrianJopek Looks bad. More impact would be present if one had more background. I do not follow the normal news until he who will not be named is off the map. So I have not the foggiest clue what this is about. E.g. what the ensuing reasons given were for the non admittance, if any? A photo only says so much. Would love to hear both sides.
