Which Act aimed at protecting the rights of African Americans to vote?

The correct response is the Voting Rights Act. This landmark legislation, passed in 1965, was specifically designed to eliminate various barriers to voting that were discriminatory towards African Americans. It aimed to enforce the voting rights guaranteed by the 14th and 15th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution, which had been undermined by state laws and practices such as literacy tests and poll taxes.

The Voting Rights Act provided for federal oversight and monitoring of voter registration and election practices in areas where there had been a history of discrimination. It also sought to empower African American voters and ensure their participation in the electoral process. The act was a crucial step in the civil rights movement and had a significant impact in increasing African American voter registration and participation in elections.

In contrast to the correct answer, the Force Acts were aimed at combating Klan violence and protecting African Americans' rights during the Reconstruction Era, but they did not specifically address voting rights in the same comprehensive way. The Amnesty Act primarily dealt with restoring political rights to former Confederates, while the Civil Rights Act addressed broader civil rights issues but also did not singularly focus on voting rights.
