Black men in Ohio gained the right to vote with the passage of the 15th Amendment in 1870, which prohibited voting discrimination based on race. However, it wasn't until the Voting Rights Act of 1965 that significant barriers preventing Black citizens from voting, such as literacy tests and other discriminatory practices, were addressed more effectively. This legislation aimed to enforce the voting rights guaranteed by the 14th and 15th Amendments and helped ensure greater access to the ballot for Black voters in Ohio and across the United States.
