Also, in light of a bunch of the above comments, I need to say I do think you're reading her post spot on. It's her stating "But the Voting Rights Act!" remarkers as one of the groups of people she's complaining about. In light of that, I'm not comfortable with who her "us" in "Give us one damn day to cheer" is excluding. It sounds very white of her to me. I can't help but hold the 2 acts together in my head--the Supreme Court made sure of that with their timing, unless you can treat one as less important.
