What were three tactics used in the late 1800's to restrict African Americans from voting?
A couple ways that Southern States kept African Americans from voting, despite the 15th Amendment, would be the Grandfather Clause, fixed literacy test, and poll fees/ taxes. The Grandfather Clause was a law that stated that you could not vote if your family couldn't vote prier to 1866. Poll fees/ taxes wasn't the best idea considering that African Americans weren't the only poor people in America. Some whites were also poor so that allowed them not to vote. And the fixed literacy test was a test question that everyone was asked before they could vote where and they would be fixed where African Americans couldn't vote. They would have stupid questions like "Spell it, backwards" and the correcter could either say to spell IT backwards or to spell BACKWARDS. For an African American, the answer would always be wrong because the correcter would mark it as the other one so they always got it wrong and couldn't vote. There are a couple more ways that Southerners kept African Americans from voting but these are the only couple ones that I know/ was taught.
