Women in Mississippi gained the right to vote in 1920 with the ratification of the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. However, many Black women, along with Black men, faced significant barriers to voting due to discriminatory practices. It wasn't until the Voting Rights Act of 1965 that many of these obstacles were challenged, allowing greater access to the ballot for all citizens in Mississippi.
