This voting act was important, because it is unfair to treat people different, because of there skin color. Like just cause I’m black does not mean I have to use a different skin tone, or eat somewhere else, or go to the back of the bus, etc.

Although the Amendment passed in 1870, there were other ways of keeping black men from voting. The southern states disenfranchised African Americans, and literacy tests and poll taxes were enacted to keep African Americans away from the polls. It wasn't until 1965 and the passage of the Voting Rights Act that African Americans could truly vote. When the Amendment became ratified, United States troops were keeping peace in the South. Once they left, the white people in the area took over and would not allow any African American whose grandfathers were not citizens to vote without paying a fee that many of them did not have.

The 15th Amendment also gave African Americans the right to be elected to public office. Once they got elected, they helped to pass laws that allowed children of all colors to attend school, and people of different races to get married.

Before the amendment passed, African Americans were not considered citizens of the United States and non-citizens were not allowed to vote.
