Laws against African Americans. These laws were made by democrats at the end of the civil war.

One method was the poll tax - for the most part, blacks couldn't afford it. Another was literacy tests (white voters were given much easier versions). A third was laws restricting voting rights to those whose grandfathers had been eligible to vote - hence the term, "grandfather clause."
