Georgia’s legislature enforced the decision of the Supreme Court’s, acknowledging that federal law took priority.
Explanation:
A Supreme Court case declared segregated schools are against their constitution. The rule separate but equal was no longer valid after this. The General assembly in Georgia opposed to this ruling and declared it null and void.
After this, all the public schools who decided to segregate were closed in Georgia and also the funding was stopped. The National flag was changed and several other steps were taken to show resistance against the new enforcement.
The 15th Amendment to the Constitution granted African American men the right to vote by declaring that the "right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude." Although ratified on February 3, 1870, the promise of the 15th Amendment would not be fully realized for almost a century. Through the use of poll taxes, literacy tests and other means, Southern states were able to effectively disenfranchise African Americans. It would take the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 before the majority of African Americans in the South were registered to vote.
