One Line: The Day After King
It is the first time that the 1965 Voting Rights Act has been used to ensure white rights.
The word "ensure" really bugs me in this sentence and I'm not quite sure why.
It's not a bad usage of the word, especially if the writer intended it as "to make certain" as that's exactly what the case is about but...I don't know. Do I want "defend" or "protect" there instead?
Maybe.
Ignore my word nerd-dom. The article and situation are far more interesting than me being trapped in the thesaurus.
