The Civil Rights Act of 1964 Outlawed arbitrary discrimination in voter registration Barred discrimination in public accommodation Authorized the US Justice Department to initiate lawsuits to desegregate schools and public facilities Allowed the federal government to withhold funds from discriminatory state and local programs Prohibited discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin or sex Created the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) to monitor and enforce bans on employment discrimination

Voting Rights Act 1965 Federal government could oversee voter registrations and elections Banned discriminatory literacy tests Expanded voting rights for non-English speaking Americans This is following the Selma March! Way to go protestors!

“Their cause must be our cause, too. Because it is not just Negroes, but really it is all of us who must overcome the crippling legacy of bigotry and injustice.” That’s right! You tell ‘em Lyndon!

Progress! Segregation is illegal African Americans can exercise their right to vote More and more African Americans elected to offices- mayors, congress and state legislatures
