Voting Rights Act

Pure, utilitarian goodness. If a title like The Fault In Our Stars is like a fancy pair of silk underwear, this title is like the five-for-five-dollar pack of gray cotton skivvies you picked up at Walgreens.

Acts don't really have exciting names generally; usually it's a short blurb about the contents of the act (i.e. Voting Rights Act of 1965 for an act about Voting Rights enacted in—you guessed it—1965), or the name of someone involved in the act (i.e. Townshend Act).

But even though the title isn't poetic, the contents of this act pack a wallop. This thing changed the dang face of America…for the better.
