Voting Rights Fight: Thousands flooded Montgomery, Ala., for the “All Roads Lead To The South” rally after a Supreme Court ruling that weakens protections for Black voters—turning the spotlight on new redistricting maps across the South, with Mississippi’s process paused but under pressure. Learning Recession: A new U.S. study says test scores have been sliding since 2013, with Arkansas showing math growth since 2022 but still ranking mid-pack—COVID sped up the drop, but the decline started earlier. Local Wins in Mississippi: North Madison County celebrated a long-awaited new softball field at its community festival, while Meridian Community College held four commencements honoring the Class of 2026. Community & Culture: Mississippi’s oldest general store continues drawing customers since 1884, and the week’s weather looks warm with storm chances building early next week.
