Description
An account of the resource
Great thread from @<a href="https://twitter.com/clancynewyork" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">clancynewyork</a> on the persistence of New York's literacy test for voting. It was introduced in 1923, as a wave of anti-immigrant fervor crested in the US, resulting in closing the borders for 40 years. Compare some states' voter ID & "exact match" laws today.Â

<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Today, I watched video of a <a href="https://twitter.com/NYHistory?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@NYHistory</a> event on women's suffrage. <a href="https://twitter.com/irin?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@irin</a> said New York State once had a literacy test.👀(That wasn't taught in my NYS schools.) The literacy test aimed to prevent voting by southern European immigrants. Instead, it disenfranchised Puerto Ricans. +</p>
