Question

Based on the sources, describe how African Americans were being denied both the 14th and 15th amendments?

The 14th Amendment
The 14th Amendment to the Constitution was ratified on July 9, 1868 and
granted citizenship to “all persons born or naturalized in the United States,”
which included former slaves recently freed. In addition, it forbids states from
denying any person "life, liberty or property, without due process of law" or
to "deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the
laws.” By directly mentioning the role of the states, the 14th Amendment
greatly expanded the protection of civil rights to all Americans and is cited in
more litigation than any other amendment.
The 15th Amendment
The 15th Amendment to the Constitution granted African American men the
right to vote by declaring that the "right of citizens of the United States to
vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on
account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude."
