Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Mississippi Plan was a set of state constitutional amendments adopted by Mississippi in 1890, with the aim of disfranchising most black voters by creating barriers to voter registration. The plan included poll taxes, literacy tests, and other measures designed to suppress black voting. It became a model for other southern states, leading to the disenfranchisement of millions of African Americans until the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s.
