LEARNING TOGETHER: The Story of America
On February 3, 1870, the 15th Amendment was ratified, giving African American men the right to vote. Because of Southern states determination to stop Black people from voting, it took years and the passing of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 before all Americans could vote without fear of intimidation, beatings, and even death.

Sadly, this is how far some people are willing to go to stop Black Americans from voting. Protect your right to vote, by VOTING! Your VOTE is powerful. Your VOTE can change our nation to benefit all Americans. Your VOTE is your voice and it matters.
