KKK
Johnson's open hostility to expanding civil rights for blacks, the commitment of Republican Radicals to moral reform, and persistent pressure from blacks
both groups were viewed as being naturally incapable and thus unfit for suffrage
Taxes to vote were raised in areas with high populations of African-Americans, making it difficult to impossible for them to be able to afford to vote.

Before the Civil War, free blacks could vote in a few Northern states, such as Massachusetts, New York, and Pennsylvania, where laws allowed for limited suffrage for free African American men. However, many states imposed strict requirements, such as property ownership or tax payments, which effectively disenfranchised many free blacks. In the South, free blacks were largely denied the right to vote altogether. The voting rights of free blacks varied significantly across different states and regions.
