[EL] Literacy Tests

[Franita Tolson]

Good morning,

I was wondering if anyone had a copy of the "easy" literacy test that was
given to some white voters in the South prior to 1965.  I know that a copy
of the Alabama literacy test given to African-Americans is widely
available, but in most states, white voters either did not have to take the
literacy test or were given an easier version of the test.  If anyone has a
copy of the "easy" version and wouldn't mind passing it along, I would
really appreciate it.

Best,

Franita Tolson
