President Reagan's approach to civil rights was often criticized for being inadequate. His administration rolled back some affirmative action policies and opposed the extension of the Voting Rights Act. However, he did appoint a number of minorities to prominent positions, including the first female Supreme Court Justice, Sandra Day O'Connor, and made efforts to promote economic opportunities through initiatives like the Urban Enterprise Zones. Reagan's legacy in civil rights remains a complex and debated topic.
