The 15th Amendment to the United States Constitution, ratified in 1870, granted African American men the right to vote by prohibiting the federal and state governments from denying a citizen the right to vote based on "race, color, or previous condition of servitude." However, it wasn't until the Voting Rights Act of 1965 that many of the discriminatory practices preventing African Americans from voting were outlawed, ensuring more effective enforcement of this right.
