Snapshot
Summary
Significance
Example: Second Mississippi
Plan
The Second Mississippi Plan
was a series of laws that
established barriers for former
slaves from participating in
voting, and included things
like the poll tax, a fee for
voting which many poor
people could not pay, the
literacy test, stating that one
had to be able to read and
write at a given standard in
order to vote, which
discriminated heavily against
most former slaves, many of
whom were illiterate.
(citation)
These laws were passed to
prevent the former slaves from
exercising any political power.
In many of the Southern
states, the black population
was either even with or
outnumbered the white
population. These laws were
set in motion to protect the
status quo of power in the
Southern states. These policies
initiated in Mississippi were
adapted by many of the other
Southern states. (citation)
