      Predominantly black would indicate whoever drew the districts was trying to suppress the pull of the black population, no?

        Correct, they draw crazy maps that try to put as many minorities as possible in as few districts as possible so their votes while concentrated and maybe get a seat or two, prevent getting many more seats that their votes and locations would warrant.
