The same time as white women, on August 26, 1920, with the ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment. However, voter suppression of blacks had been common in the United States. The American Civil Rights movement and the passage of the voting rights act has helped alleviate much of that suppression.

The same time as white women.. African American got their rights to vote before women, so when women won their right to vote, it included African American Women
Passed by Congress June 4, 1919, and ratified on August 18, 1920, the 19th amendment guarantees all American women the right to vote.

The 19th amendment to the US Constitution, ratified in 1920, gave women the right to vote.
Unfortunately, African Americans were discriminated and prohibited from exercising the right to vote via unconstitutional poll taxes, intelligence tests, and just flat out denied entry into the Registrar of Voters office. The Voting Rights Act passed by Congress in 1965 made those discriminatory practices a federal crime.
