Answer 1

The answer is: B) Mia can bring a claim of discrimination under the Title VII of Civil Rights Act of 1964 based on color

Step-by-step explanation:

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 is a federal law that prohibits employers from discriminating against employees on the basis of:

• sex
• race
• color: Mia is being discriminated because of the color of her skin
• national origin
• religion

Mia's employer can not discriminate her with regard to any term, condition, or privilege of employment. In Mia's case the conditions and privileges of her employment are being modified. She has earned the right to work on the day shift.
