The Fifteenth Amendment was ratified by the states in 1870 and also gave Congress the power to enforce such rights against governments that sought to undermine this guarantee through the enactment of appropriate legislation. Enforcement was, however, difficult as states employed grandfather clauses and other eligibility requirements to maintain racial discrimination in the electoral process.

What amendment gave thee blacks a right to vote?
amendment 15 amendment 15 While the 15th Amendment is what prohibited the states from using race as a means to deny the right to vote. The times being what they were, though, in no way did the 15th create equal - or even open - access to voting. Poll taxes were one of the major ways local governments disenfranchised minorities and the poor; poll taxes were made illegal by the 24th Amendment. Therefore, it was actually a combination of the 15th and 24th Amendments that franchised black citizens.
