The video discusses the importance of the Voting Rights Act in the context of the US citizenship test. It highlights the post-Civil War era when laws restricted Black Americans' voting rights through poll taxes and registration tests. The civil rights movement, led by figures like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., protested these injustices, leading to the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
