In this first episode of our limited series "Okay, But Why?", we're taking a deep dive into voting rights.

We all want free and fair elections where everyone who’s legally able to vote can make their voice heard.

Today, we're examining the history of voting rights and taking a closer look at why politicians are trying so hard to keep some Americans from voting.
