∙ 13y agoThe 15th Amendment, ratified in 1870 during the Reconstruction of the South after the Civil War, granted universal male suffrage. It prohibited discrimination in voting rights based on race. Note that technically, there is not a guarantee of the right to vote, but rather a prohibition on discrimination by race (and gender, after the 19th Amendment). So a state could theoretically pass a law that says you have to be a resident for x number of years before you can vote. This means many African-Americans or women would lose the right to vote, but because they are not being discriminated against based on their race or gender, the 15th and the 19th Amendment (respectively) would not be violated. Two other voting rights Amendment are the 24th (no poll taxes to vote) and the 26th (voting age must be 18 in federal elections).

African American Males
The reconstruction act guaranteed African American males the right to vote. The southern state resorted to intimidation tactics to prevent most black males from registering or successfully voting.
The Fifteenth Amendment prohibits the denial of voting rights on the basis of color or national origin. Along with the 14th Amendment (granted citizenship, prohibited slavery), it allowed African-American males to vote.
The purpose of the 15th Amendment was to stop the states from denying anyone the right to vote because of race or color or because the person had once been a slave.

all males could vote
The 15th amendment allowed African American males to vote, and the 19th amendment gave women the right to vote. Native Americans were not considered citizens until 1924, so they did not have the right to vote until then. Even after 1924, some states restricted Native American voting rights based on whether or not they paid property taxes. This discrimination continued until the 1950s. Though African American males were guaranteed the right to vote by the 15th amendment, and African American women by the 19th, many legal and social barriers were quickly created to impede actual voting. These barriers were made illegal in the Civil Rights Act of 1957. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 made all racial discrimination and segregation illegal.
