The Voters are Alright
A barrier unlike any other was broken down when LBJ was on a prolific broadcast
The year was 1965 and the Voting Rights Act was finally passed
Voting was a privilege that minorities did not have in the past
In this law discrimination in voting booths was bypassed
This law made it legal for everyone's vote to be cast
No longer were the interests of minorities downcast
Instead they interests were extremely important because the voting population became much more vast
