Photography by Vicky Pink - On Thursday, August 6, 2015, Houston Style Magazine was on hand at the Mickey Leland Federal Office Building for the 50th Anniversary of the 1965 Voting Rights Act press conference. This year is the 50th anniversary of the 1965 Voting Rights Act, which prohibits racial discrimination in voting. Fellow Texan President Lyndon B. Johnson signed it into law. A re-enactment of the signing of the Act by President Johnson was conducted with a day of voter registration at designated sites. Some in attendance were Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, Jewel Prestage, LaDonna Harris, Davina Horace, Kelly Hodges, Jew Don Boney, Gerald Womack, Sherry Browning, State Rep. Ron Reynolds, Kim Topps, and Brandon Dudley.
