The Civil Rights Act of 1964 is a landmark piece of legislation that guaranteed equality for blacks and whites by prohibiting discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. It aimed to eliminate segregation in public places and banned employment discrimination. This act was a significant step in the Civil Rights Movement, helping to ensure equal rights and protections under the law for all citizens.
