Answer:

passing new voting requirements.

Step-by-step explanation:

At the end of the reconstruction in the United States, the african-americans were disenfranchised by the southern Democrats by certain laws, constitutions, and other practices that were intentionally put in place to stop the blacks from voting and also from registering to vote.

These laws were used to suppress the black voters. They made laws that did not seem racial on paper, just to avoid a violation of the fifteenth amendment. But they purposely implemented these laws to suppress the blacks.
