By 1965, electricity was an everyday part of American life. Post-World War II prosperity remade the American home into a palace of electric consumption. Electrical appliances had become commonplace, purchased partly in response to widespread promotional efforts by manufacturers and utilities, such as General Electric, whose "Live Better Electrically" campaign encouraged consumers to adopt a fully electrified existence. Household products like washers and dryers, televisions, coffee makers, dishwashers, and air conditioners established a new standard of living unparalleled in American history. Despite persisting inequalities in the distribution of the new postwar affluence, per capita consumption of electricity roughly doubled in each of the three decades following World War II.

In 1965, the federal government adopted the Voting Rights Act to ensure fair and equal access for all Citizens to the voting process. Many times since its adoption, the intent of the Act has been challenged. How can we, as a beacon of democracy for the world, have credibility on the issue of fair and open elections when a portion of our citizenry stands prepared to intimidate and frighten others from performing their most important civic obligation casting their ballot to decide their leader?
