Well, honey, technically black men were granted the right to vote with the 15th Amendment in 1870, but we all know that didn't mean much due to all the Jim Crow laws and voter suppression tactics. Black women had to wait until the 19th Amendment in 1920 to join the party. So, in short, the answer is 1870 for black men and 1920 for black women.
