Contextualizing the question helps divide the plausible options. Bloody Sunday in 1965 was a pivotal moment in the civil rights movement that drew national attention to voting barriers in the South, particularly literacy tests.
Option 1: Civil Rights Act. While the Civil Rights Act of 1964 addressed discrimination in various areas (public accommodations, employment, etc.), it did not specifically end literacy tests as a tool used to bar Black citizens from voting. Therefore this option does not directly answer the question about ending literacy tests.
Option 2: Voting Rights Act. This is the key piece of legislation linked to ending literacy tests. After the events of Bloody Sunday and the ensuing national response, Congress passed the Voting Rights Act in 1965 to remove barriers to voting for racial minorities, including the elimination of literacy tests and other discriminatory practices. This aligns precisely with the question.
Option 3: The 24th Amendment. The 24th Amendment, ratified in 1964, prohibited the use of poll taxes in federal elections, which was a voting rights barrier but not the measure that ended literacy tests. While related to voting access, it does not address literacy tests themselves.
Option 4: The 26th Amendment. Ratified in 1971, this amendment lowered the voting age from 21 to 18. It has no direct connection to literacy tests or their elimination and therefore is not relevant to the question.
In summary, the most accurate linkage to ending literacy tests following Bloody Sunday is the Voting Rights Act, whereas the other options address other civil rights or voting protections but not the specific target of literacy-test elimination.
