Grandfather clauses were designed to prevent poor and illiterate African Americans from voting.

This term was coined in the 19th century when new rules for literacy tests, poll taxes and requirements for voting were established.

Some white people who did not fulfill the requirements were still allowed to vote because their ancestors ( grandfathers ) had the right to vote. This was a way to make voting possible for white Americans, and to make voting almost impossible for black people.

Today, this term applies to a provision in which an old rule continues to apply to some existing situation while a new rule will apply to future cases.

how would american culture have been different in the automobille had not been affordable in the 1950's?
natka813 [3]

The "affordability" of the automobile in the 1950s changed American culture.

Affordability is in quotes because the automobile manufacturers did something tricky. They got the US government to pay for the building and maintenance of roads.

So, unlike the train system where the train companies have to build and maintain tracks, the auto makers only had to make the cars.

This reshaped our country, allowing roads and cars to become the primary means of transportation in the country. In turn, people could then live outside of cities allowing suburbs to be created and fast food restaurants to be invented for people in the car on the go.
