In 1870, the FIFTEENTH Amendment gave all male citizens the right to vote.

The Fifteenth Amendment was one of the three amendments enacted after the American Civil War (1861-65) to ensure equality for black Americans. This Amendment, ratified on February 3, 1870, guarantees the right to vote of all U.S.'s male citizens, stating that this right will not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.
