Is Donald Trump dismantling decades-old civil rights to strengthen his grip on power?
The answer could well be in the American South.
Memphis, Tennessee. The home of the blues, now being forced red.
It’s one of the most Democratic cities in America- but it’s now caught in a national political battle.
Ahead of a crucial midterms, Tennessee legislators redrew the state’s voting maps — erasing the only majority-Black congressional district in the state. It’s now likely to become a Republican area.
The process is called redistricting.
Critics call it voter suppression.
Supporters call it politics.
Either way, it’s reshaping who holds power in America.
