Question

what are two things southern white people did to circumvent the fifteenth amendment? they established a poll tax to make it too expensive to vote. they put into force a literacy requirement for the right to vote. they made it so only property owners had the right to vote. they segregated voting locations to know which votes to toss out.

Explanation:

The Fifteenth Amendment granted African American men the right to vote. Southern White people used methods to circumvent this. Poll taxes (making voting expensive, disproportionately affecting Black voters who were often poorer) and literacy tests (many Black Americans, due to historical lack of access to education, struggled with these) were common tactics. Property ownership and segregating voting locations were not the primary or most common methods to circumvent the Fifteenth Amendment.

Answer:

A. They established a poll tax to make it too expensive to vote.
B. They put into force a literacy requirement for the right to vote.
