HOT ROC: Literacy Test
• What you have just received is a Alabama literacy
test dating from 1965. Depending on who
administered the test, missing anywhere from 1-5
questions could deem you unfit to vote. You were
exempt from this test if you could prove one of
your ancestors was eligible to vote before 1867.
No African-Americans were eligible to vote before
1867 because slavery was in existence.
