I have reread you post and I humbly and deeply appologize. I believed at first you were saying the Constitution barred those groups. It was my mistake and I truly am sorry.
No there is no literacy testing provision, however, I would hope that it wouldn't stand. I think (and I maybe wrong) that literacy tests are covered in the VRAof1965 or a subsequent law.
