Something to ponder as you head out to vote today, for free. In the Library's Rosa Parks Papers collection, there's a receipt for the poll tax she had to pay to vote in Alabama in 1956. Poll taxes, a Jim Crow-era voter suppression tool, were not abolished federally until 1964.
ALT From the Library's Rosa Parks Papers, a Poll Tax Receipt from the county of Montgomery, Alabama from 1956. It was paid in the amount of $1.50 and signed by Rosa Louise Parks.
