The United States constitution gave Native Americans the right to vote in 1924, until this date Native Americans were not considered citizens. There are treaties that were signed by the various tribes that included the Native peoples into the constitution of the United States.

The 14th and 15th amendments did not give native americans the right to vote true or false?

True. The 14th and 15th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution granted citizenship and voting rights to African Americans but did not extend these rights to Native Americans. It wasn't until 1924, with the Indian Citizenship Act, that Native Americans were granted U.S. citizenship, and even then, many states found ways to keep them from voting until the 1950s and 1960s.

Does the constitution apply to african-americans?

When the Constitution was created, African Americans had no rights, even though the constitution said that all men were equal. They had no right to vote, to speak freely, and had educational rights taken from them. It wasn't until the 13th admendment, when Abraham Lincoln set his Emancipation Proclamation, that blacks started to gain their rights in the Consitution. The 14th admendment was first indended to secure the rights of former slaves. The original Constitution did not follow for African Americans, it was later that it was changed to include them.
