Best answer: the passage of many social programs.
Explanation: The Nineteenth Amendment (1920) extended the vote to women, which shifted political priorities and helped produce greater support for public health, education, labor protections, and other social reforms. It did not expand suffrage to Black men (that was the Fifteenth Amendment), did not create literacy tests (those were used later to restrict Black voting), and did not ban poll taxes (the 24th Amendment and later court decisions dealt with poll taxes). Note also that many women of color remained effectively disenfranchised by Jim Crow practices despite the Nineteenth Amendment.
