Plessy v. Ferguson

Briefly: Poll taxes and literacy tests were legal barriers designed to keep Black people from registering/voting; the Ku Klux Klan used violence and intimidation to prevent Black voting; and Plessy v. Ferguson (1896) upheld “separate but equal” Jim Crow laws that supported widespread racial disenfranchisement.
