Literacy Tests
Seems to be my day for asking for help . . .
A colleague is looking for a copy (or excerpt) of the sort
of literacy test formerly used in some Southern states
to disenfranchise African-Americans. We haven't
found anything here in my shop, but we did think that
maybe a congressional committee might have entered
some as evidence during the hearings that led to the
Voting Rights Act of '65.
Any other suggestions?
