Democracy under threat for Black Americans, says report.

The National Urban League's annual State of Black America report reveals that democracy for Black Americans is under attack due to extreme views adopted by some political leaders, attempts to limit what history can be taught in schools, and efforts to make voting more difficult. The report also highlights an increase in hate crimes and the normalization of extremist views in politics, the military, and law enforcement. One of the most prominent areas examined is critical race theory, with scholars warning that the rewriting of history and suppression of certain aspects of the country's racial conflicts will lead to major gaps in understanding history and social justice.
