2. The NAACP Legal Defense Fund on this upcoming case

THE US Constitution
"Amendment XV.
Section 1
The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude–"

"Why was Louisiana's redistricting map challenged?

In 2022, the Louisiana Legislature passed a discriminatory congressional map that was challenged in court as a violation of Section 2 of the VRA. After years of litigation, during which multiple federal courts found that Louisiana’s congressional map likely violated the VRA, the courts ordered the Louisiana Legislature to pass a map that complied with the VRA and included two majority-Black districts. In January 2024, the Legislature passed a map, SB 8, that included a second majority-Black district and also accomplished key political objectives, including protecting incumbents such as Speaker Johnson. That map was quickly signed into law.

A group of self-titled “non-African American voters” challenged the new map with two majority-Black districts, aiming to once again undermine Black Louisianians’ political power. These voters claimed that “race was the sole reason” for the district lines despite facts to the contrary.

Opponents of Louisiana’s map do not aim only to overturn it. They now seek to pit critical civil rights protections against one another, claiming that attempting to address racial discrimination under Section 2 is itself discriminatory and violates the 14th and 15th Amendments — the very constitutional provisions adopted in the wake of the Civil War to protect against racial discrimination, including in voting. The VRA was later passed to enforce these exact constitutional principles.".

So...
"These voters claimed that “race was the sole reason” for the district lines despite facts to the contrary."

Ok, it's 1:30AM here, and maaaaybe I'm a little dense but...
Even if race is the sole reason - so what?

I mean The VRA is all about trying to bring some balance, justice and equality to our underrepresented Black citizens in particularly discriminating US States. To combat past, and still current racism. It is about race (and remedies there of).

Seems these self-titled “non-African American voters” want to strike down this 2nd district (local issue) which then denies them better representation, but could eventually effect other States remedy districts (by challenges) for more balanced Black representation. Which is the point of The VRA.
(Apologies for repetition)

Am I missing something here?
