Civil rights legislation, like the Voting Rights Act, aimed to remove barriers to African Americans' voting, such as literacy tests. After this legislation, a majority of African Americans were able to register to vote. The other options (home - buying, university attendance, and passing literacy tests in a majority sense) were not direct and immediate results of civil rights legislation focused on voting rights.
