The common goal of the 14th Amendment and the Civil Rights Act of 1866 was to ensure equality and protection of civil rights for former enslaved individuals and all citizens, particularly in the aftermath of the Civil War. Both sought to establish legal recognition of citizenship and to prevent discrimination based on race, thereby promoting equal treatment under the law. These measures aimed to secure fundamental rights and address the injustices faced by African Americans, laying the groundwork for future civil rights advancements.
