Answer:

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 banned segregation in public places and outlawed discrimination in the workplace.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was a milestone in the Civil Rights Movements, defining and prohibiting the major forms of discrimination against African Americans and women, including racial segregation. The law put an end to the unequal requirements for voter registration and racial segregation in schools, work and public services.

The Civil Rights Act significantly improved the situation of the black population, but did not lift discrimination against the African American voter. To this end, President Johnson passed the Voting Rights Act on August 6, 1965, with the approval of Congress.
