The Voting Rights Act of 1965 was intended to stop literacy tests. It was also put in place to stop the taxation of previously qualified voters. I, personally, think that the literacy tests are an outrage. They take advantage of the less educated portion of our African-American society. Education is a serious issue among us blacks, because schools won't allow us to enroll in their systems, so the literacy tests that the state forces us to take are completely absurd.
