I suspect it had just as much to do with who was grading the tests.
I once worked as a claims rep for the Social Security Adm.
I was trying to establish the age of an old Black guy who was filing. He said he had attended grammar school in Mississippi.
This would have been around the 1910-15 era. I checked and saw that school records for Mississippi Black schools were available so ordered several. I was frankly amazed at the quality of the records. They were excellent.
Fair enough. Not much different from today, too.
Granted, but that has nothing to do with the test, per se. SCOTUS will probably disagree with me, but I'd have no problem with the use of a test of this difficulty, so long as the answers were written down and make it like one of those tests in school where you black in the circle and grade it by machine. The leftards will still say that's discriminatory. I don't know or care whether it is or not, but the fact remains that someone not sufficiently literate and intelligent to complete that test (graded without bias) has NO business voting on anything that affects me or anyone else able to complete the test.
Did?
Rachel Jeantel could not answer a question on that test.
Maybe so, but I think they should give it to all potential voters. If you cannot get at least 70%, your a dumb as a box of rocks and should not be voting. Maybe this would stop the mental patients that the Democrats bus to voting booths from voting.
And you know this how?
And you know this how?
I took the Louisiana 1964 test
It would be impossible for someone illiterate
And for someone with an IQ under mid 90s
And black mean IQ is rather low
An unfair test agreed....regardless of race
