"What a Colored Man Should Do to Vote" by Anonymous is a political pamphlet aimed at African American men of voting age living in the Southern United States, likely written in the early 20th century. The book serves as both a guide and a call to action, emphasizing the importance of voting as a means to advocate for one's rights and interests. It addresses the systemic barriers and requirements imposed on Black
voters during this historical period. The pamphlet provides detailed information on the voting regulations across various Southern states, including requirements such as poll taxes, literacy tests, and residency stipulations. Additionally, it underscores the significance of community engagement and civic duty, urging male citizens to actively participate in elections and to forge alliances with their white neighbors for mutual benefit. Throughout, the text carries a tone of empowerment, encouraging readers to take charge of their political agency and to uphold their responsibilities as citizens in the face of adversity.
