Description

Introduction: The Civil Rights Act of 1964 has been heralded as one of the most important pieces of legislation geared toward bringing about full equality for blacks in America. It made it unlawful to discriminate or segregate persons on the basis of race and color. It is a biproduct of the Supreme Court ruling in the Brown V. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas, on May 17, 1991 declaring null and void segregation in public facilities. It should be noted that this was a case in which the Supreme Court of the United States reversed its earlier stand in its decision in the Plessy V. Ferguson case in 1896. In this case, the Jim Crow laws of "separate but equal won constitutional approval with the court ruling that "equal protection" of the laws clause as provided by the Fourteenth Amendment did not prevent state-enforced separation of the races.
