In this video we debunk the myth of the Southern Strategy and the party shift between Democrats and Republicans following the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Building off of the @PragerU video explaining why the party shift never happened. Using history and statistics, this video gives an in depth explanation behind historical voting trends in Northern and Southern states and how economics, infrastructure, and unions influenced voting in the United States. #politics #prageru #southernstrategy #civilrights #republican #democrats #partyrealignment #economics #plessyvsferguson #democraticparty
