we had to do an activityt for the jim crow law thing so i did the one on voting then and voting now. for that i had to read what they went through, took part of their literacy test, read how they had to pay, but most of them didnt go because they said they were goin to arrest all of the black drivers. the point that the activity was to show what they went through just to vote. i learned that they went through a lot and we are very lucky that it is so easy for us to vote now.
