Question

3. The 15th Amendment said that all men could vote, regardless of race. Explain how

poll taxes and literacy tests were specifically designed to target male minorities from
voting. (4 pts)

Answer 1

First we need to understand a little Backround for this question, Minority groups such as african americans were realeased from slavery but didn't have the same access to education as White Americans. The 15th amendment Targeted these minorities because they weren't being educated because of the color of their skin but needed to be educated to pass a Literacy test and be able to vote.
