Hat Tip to Publius Revolts in the comments on the Dismantling Voting Rights Enforcement discussion thread. In the comment Publius tells us that Teresa Lynn, the author of the "Plantation Email" biding goodbye to her colleagues in the Voting Section, will be on All Things Considered ... tomorrow. Listen in!

That would be this email from ePluribus Media's The Voting Rights Act, Voter Disfranchisement and the Tail Wagging the Dog article:

In an email obtained by ePluribus Media, a departing Voting Section employee accuses the section of having become a "plantation" and refers to colleagues as still being "under the 'whip'."

Subject: One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
I am retiring after 33 years in the Civil Rights Division, with 28 of those years in the Voting Section. I leave with fond memories of the Voting Section I once knew and I am gladly escaping the "Plantation" it has become.
For my colleagues still under the "whip", hold on - "The Times They are A Changing".
