During the first decade after the 1954 Supreme Court decision in Brown v. Board of Education, three significant civil rights acts were passed: the Civil Rights Act of 1957, the Civil Rights Act of 1960, and the landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964. These acts aimed to combat racial discrimination and protect the voting rights of African Americans, laying the groundwork for further civil rights advancements.

The Civil Rights Act of 1957 created the Division of Civil Rights of the Department of Justice - which handles all issues regarding voter discrimination. However, the division really didn't have much teeth until later Civil Rights Acts like the 1964 act.
