The 15th Amendment of the US Constitution was ratified in 1870. The political forces behind this amendment were former anti slavery abolitionists and so-called Radical Republicans. The amendment stated that color, race, or ethic groups could not be prevented from voting. It was particularly aimed at disenfranchised Afro Americans who were denied voting rights in the South by clever laws that impeded Blacks from voting. The amendment was supported by Republican president Ulyesses S. Grant.
