A literacy test has never been illegal in and of itself. Requiring voters to pass literacy tests in order to vote was declared unconstitutional. It is unconstitutional because all citizens have the right to vote, regardless of their level of literacy. But the main point was that southern states used these laws as a method to prevent black voters from participating.
These measures were passed by southern states to disenfranchise African Americans and other minority groups from voting. They imposed barriers such as literacy tests, poll taxes, and grandfather clauses to prevent them from exercising their right to vote.
