The poll tax was enacted, primarily in the South, to force people to pay a tax to be allowed to vote. Most people agree that this was a legislated form of racism, as it resulted in preventing poor African-Americans from being allowed to vote because they could not afford the poll tax. Of course, it also meant that the poor of any race could not afford to vote.
