In the 1920s, Black people in the United States technically had the legal right to vote following the 15th Amendment, ratified in 1870. However, widespread discriminatory practices, such as literacy tests, poll taxes, and intimidation, effectively disenfranchised many Black voters, especially in the South. It wasn't until the Civil Rights Movement and the Voting Rights Act of 1965 that significant legal protections were established to ensure their voting rights.
