Were most black people able to vote before white women?

Women had the vote in 1920

The right to vote wasn't a race thing, it was a gender thing. Thats why Black men got the right to vote first. Black women got the right to vote at the same time White women did.

Its because it was thought that men represented the household, and each household had one vote. Therefore, men could to vote, I don't get why its that big of a deal.

The 15th amendment in 1870 gave black men the right to vote first. Women got the right to vote in 1919, a half century later

"Were most black people able to vote before white women"...first of all, this is a gender thing not a race thing. I dont know why you exclusively asked about black people and white women, as if black women and white women did not gain the right to vote at the sametime. Your question shouldve just been, "Were most black men able to vote before women in general" I dont know why you specifically chosen to compare their voting rights with white women, when women couldnt vote during that time in general, including black women

...also people discussing the history of voting should note that only male"property owners" were allowed to vote in the 19 th century...most people are under the impression that all white males had the vote at the same time, and nothing could be further from the truth.

How does wanting the vote for women mean that feminists did not think black people should have the vote? Do I take it you think women should not campaign for equal rights whilst there are others who are disadvantaged? Should we accuse Martin Luther King of selfish indifference? What did he ever do for gay rights or animal cruelty?

No. Most were, as you say, prevented from doing so, at any rate in the southern states.
