EPISODE SUMMARY

In this episode, the hosts discuss how southern states used legal structures post Reconstruction to nullify rights embodied in the Fifteenth Amendment. White primaries, poll taxes, literacy tests, and other "legal" policies worked to virtually eliminate Black Americans from the voting rolls.
