The Constitution expanded African American rights in 1870 through the ratification of the Fifteenth Amendment, which prohibited the federal and state governments from denying citizens the right to vote based on "race, color, or previous condition of servitude." This amendment was a significant step towards granting African American men the legal right to participate in the electoral process. However, despite this constitutional protection, many African Americans faced systemic barriers, such as discriminatory practices and violence, that hindered their ability to exercise these rights fully.
