Rev. Al Sharpton Says Scott Colom’s Win Is a Message to the Supreme Court: ‘We Still Are Going to Break Through’

EXCERPT:

SHARPTON: "At a time let us not only talk about since 65 voting rights that happened because Goodman, Chaney and Schwerner and others paid a price, two Jews and the black, but it is also at a time that voting rights has been gutted by this Supreme Court. And Section 2 has been neutralized. So if there ever was a time we needed to show we would not go backwards. And Scott Colom's victory says that. It's the vote last night saying to the Supreme Court and others, you can gerrymander all you want --"
BRZEZINSKI: "Mm-hmm."
SHARPTON: “-- but we still are going to break through. And that breakthrough last night meant so much for all of us around the country. Not only people in Mississippi, though, they should be given the credit for it.”
