The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was a landmark legislation that prohibited discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. This act specifically aimed to ensure equality for African Americans in public places, including restaurants, hotels, and theaters. It marked a significant advancement in the struggle for civil rights, effectively ending legal segregation and promoting equal access to public accommodations. Subsequent legislation and court rulings built upon this foundation to further protect and expand civil rights for all individuals.
