Executive Order 9980, issued in 1948, aimed to eliminate racial discrimination in the federal workforce, promoting equal employment opportunities for African Americans. While it marked a significant step towards desegregation and fairness, the actual hiring of African Americans did not immediately change across all sectors. Many faced persistent discrimination and barriers in both federal and private employment despite the order. Progress was gradual, with more substantial changes occurring during the Civil Rights Movement in the 1960s.
