Answer

15th

Explanation

The 15th Amendment to the United States Constitution, ratified in 1870, granted African American men the right to vote by declaring that the "right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude." The 13th Amendment abolished slavery, the 14th Amendment granted citizenship to all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and the 19th Amendment granted women the right to vote.
