Document A: The 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments (Modified)

The 15th Amendment states 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.” It was amended to the US Constitution in 1870, two years after the 14th Amendment guaranteed basic civil rights to all citizens. ................
