In 1965, President Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act, a momentous piece of civil rights legislation that broke down barriers facing Black voters.

The result: a dash to re-draw voting districts in several states. "Sunday Morning" national correspondent Robert Costa talks with key voices about what the Court's ruling portends for democracy.
