How did grandfather clauses affect southern voting rights after the civil war?

History

The grandfather clause stated that any person who had a father or grandfather that was bound in slavery was unable to vote. Because of the lineage of African Americans at the time, there was a very small amount of the African American population who didn’t have ancestry like this. This was the government’s way of limiting the voting rights of African Americans.

yawa3891 [41]

Some of the arguments people might have made against the declaration:

"The Seneca Falls Declaration is the most mistaken, shocking and unnatural event ever made in U.S. history, by women. Women belong to their homes, where they can take care of the offspring, her family and her husband. They aren't qualified to vote, nor legislate and don't need to do so since men in their lives already represent their political will, therefore their duty is only to enhance the social status of her husband or men in the family, according to their situation.

Without such a role in society, who, then is going to do the chores at home? Are the lords going to wash the dishes, clean, do the laundry, feed the children and all sort of chores? Such behavior is unacceptable in society and a threat to our most valued traditions, where men by nature and by God's command, are the heads of the family and not vice-versa."
