a luta continua

The above op-ed appeared in the 24 June 1968 issue of the Evening Star.  It shows that it's the same shit, different 49 years.  

The fight for voting representation in Congress and the fight for statehood has been a long arduous struggle.  Hell, Washingtonians didn't get electoral college voters until the 1966 presidential election.

Were you active in the 23rd Amendment (1961) fight? Were you active in organizing for voting rights and statehood?
