VOTING, IF THE BALLOT IS PUSHED DOES IT MAKE THE BULLETS STOP"? OR IS THIS BS? DOES MY VOTE COUNT, OR IS THIS BS?
Malcolm described how potent a weapon the ballot could be, if it was exercised with care:
"A ballot is like a bullet. You don't throw your ballots until you see a target, and if that target is not within your reach, keep your ballot in your pocket."

MARTIN LUTHER KING JR
The Senate had passed its version of the Voting Rights Act but the House Rules Committee was holding up the legislation when King wrote an editorial in the black-owned New York Amsterdam News on June 19, 1965.
The House panel approved the bill 12 days later, and President Lyndon B. Johnson signed Congress’s final rendering into law on August 6.
