"Raising the Flag" by Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial cartoonist Nick Anderson.
"There’s a particular kind of decision that doesn’t just change the law. It rewrites the story we tell ourselves about the country. The Supreme Court’s latest ruling on the Voting Rights Act is one of those decisions.
The court’s conservative majority didn’t simply narrow a statute. It made a far more sweeping claim: that the conditions that justified the law no longer exist."

1/n@AkaSci An addition to the alt text:
Only six members of the court are shown helping to raise the Confederate flag, not all nine (Kagan, Sotomayor, and Jackson are omitted). And the justices are also trampling a piece of paper with the label "Voting Rights Act"
