  • The Fifteenth Amendment (1870) granted the right to vote to African American men, including former slaves, and Americans of all colors.
  • The Nineteenth Amendment (1920) extended the right to vote to all American women.
  • The Twenty-third Amendment (1961) granted citizens of the District of Columbia the right to choose electors in the Electoral College. Prior to the amendment, this was not possible because the District of Columbia is not a state but a federal district, and, according to the Constitution, only citizens of a state could choose electors in presidential elections.
  • The Twenty-fourth Amendment (1964) prohibited the imposition of poll taxes to be able to vote, which was a practice common in the Southern States that aimed at preventing African Americans from voting and participate in politics.
  • The Twenty-sixth Amendment (1971) granted suffrage to citizens aged 18 years or older (Before, only people aged 21 years or older were eligible to vote).

Katarina [22]

2. Why use Clyde Ross, a resident of North Lawndale in particular, to illustrate much of this article?

3. Just considering housing as a topic, how does housing policy illustrate systematic racism?

4. "We invoke the words of Jefferson and Lincoln because they say something about our legacy and our traditions.

We do this because we recognize our links to the past - at least when they flatter us. But black history does not

flatter American democracy; it chastens it.... White supremacy is not merely the work of hotheaded

demagogues, or a matter of false consciousness, but a force so fundamental to America that it is difficult to

imagine the country without it." From Coates' evidence, explain this.

5. What would "paying reparations" to American blacks look like to Coates?
