Respuesta :
The Civil Rights Act of 1964, which ended segregation in public places and banned employment discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex or national origin, is considered one of the crowning legislative achievements of the civil rightsmovement.
Answer:
Both the Civil Rights Act of 1957 and the Civil Rights Act of 1964 resulted from the Civil Rights Movement.
Explanation:
The Civil Rights Movement was a political movement in the United States that worked primarily to provide the black population of the nation with equal civil rights (as the one to vote in elections) on par with whites, and remove racial discrimination against African Americans. It developed between 1955 and 1968, especially in the southern states. The emergence of the Black Power movement, which lasted from 1966 to 1975, expanded the goals of the civil rights movement to include ethnic dignity, economic and political self-sufficiency, and freedom from oppression of white Americans.
The movement was characterized by significant campaigns of civil resistance. Between 1955 and 1968, many nonviolent actions and civil disobedience led to crisis situations between activists and the authorities. Federal, state, and local governments, businesses, and communities often had to respond immediately to these situations that highlighted the injustices faced by African Americans.
Known legislative victories during this phase of the civil rights movement were the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibited discrimination based on "race, color, religion, or national origin" in employment processes and public sevices (transportation, school, etc); and the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which restored and protected the right to vote for African Americans.
