'Literacy'

Explicación

## Step 1The Voting Rights Act of 1965 was a significant piece of legislation in the United States that aimed to overcome legal barriers at the state and local levels that prevented African Americans from exercising their right to vote as guaranteed under the 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.## Step 2One of the key provisions of this Act was the prohibition of literacy tests. These tests were used in some U.S. states to disenfranchise African American voters.## Step 3Literacy tests were designed to be extremely difficult and were used as a tool to prevent African Americans from voting. The Voting Rights Act of 1965 banned these tests, making it illegal to use them as a requirement for voting.
