Question

policies like poll taxes and literacy tests effectively countered what amendments?
the
econstruction amendments\
the \freedom amendments\
the \due process amendments\

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Poll taxes and literacy tests were discriminatory tools used in the U.S. to prevent Black Americans from voting, directly undermining the 15th Amendment (which prohibited voting discrimination based on race) — part of the Reconstruction Amendments (13th, 14th, 15th). These amendments aimed to secure rights for formerly enslaved people, and the policies countered their voting rights protections. The other terms are not the standard name for the amendments targeted here.

Answer:

the "Reconstruction Amendments"
