Humankind: The Right to Vote

Airs Sunday, August 16, 2020 at 7 p.m. A documentary about the much-contested right to vote in America: from slaves freed after the Civil War, to women's suffrage, to the Civil Rights movement, to today's debate over whether voters should be required to show ID at the polls. We trace the long battle over who may participate in democracy's most basic function. Includes coverage of major summer 2016 court rulings.
