Answer 1

Among the groups listed, **African Americans** gained more political participation with amendments added to the Constitution. The 15th Amendment granted African American men the right to vote, while the 19th Amendment extended voting rights to women, including African American women. Over time, subsequent civil rights legislation and court rulings further expanded their political participation.

While other groups have seen improvements over time, especially through legislation, the constitutional amendments specifically aimed at increasing participation for African Americans are particularly notable.
