How did the poll tax help African Americans receive full citizenship?
Princessdiva312gp615...
The poll tax was actually an impediment to African-Americans exercising their right to vote. By taxing voting for African-Americans, who were extremely poor, it effectively stopped them from voting. Only when poll taxes were deemed unconstitutional by the 24th Amendment did African-Americans begin to have a shot at full citizenship.
