Solution

Answer

The answer is grants universal male suffrage (voting rights).

Explanation
Option 1: allows for the direct election of senators

This is incorrect. The direct election of senators is established by the 17th Amendment, not the 15th Amendment.

Option 2: allows for taxation of income

This is incorrect. The taxation of income is authorized by the 16th Amendment.

Option 3: grants universal male suffrage (voting rights)

This is correct. The 15th Amendment, ratified in 1870, prohibits the federal and state governments from denying a citizen the right to vote based on "race, color, or previous condition of servitude," effectively granting voting rights to African American men.

Option 4: establishes citizenship restrictions

This is incorrect. The 15th Amendment does not establish citizenship restrictions; rather, it focuses on voting rights.
