Segregation in America began to be officially abolished with the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibited discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. This landmark legislation marked a significant turning point in the fight against institutionalized segregation, particularly in public facilities and schools. The Supreme Court's decision in Brown v. Board of Education in 1954 had already declared racial segregation in public schools unconstitutional, paving the way for further desegregation efforts. Despite these legal advancements, the full realization of desegregation took many years and continued to face resistance.
