The last of the Reconstruction Era amendments was the Fifteenth Amendment, ratified in 1870. This amendment prohibits the federal and state governments from denying a citizen the right to vote based on "race, color, or previous condition of servitude." It aimed to ensure that African American men could participate in the electoral process following the Civil War, although many barriers to voting persisted for decades afterward.
