Final answer:
Title VII's prohibition against "national origin" discrimination protects all individuals, regardless of their citizenship status.
Step-by-step explanation:
False: Title VII's prohibition against "national origin" discrimination protects all individuals, regardless of their citizenship status. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 explicitly states that it is unlawful for employers to discriminate against employees or applicants based on their race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. Citizenship status is not a factor in determining the protection against national origin discrimination.False.
Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, and national origin. The prohibition against "national origin" discrimination means that employers cannot treat individuals unfavorably because they are from a particular country or part of the world, because of ethnicity or accent, or because they appear to be of a certain ethnic background (even if they are not).
Title VII protects all individuals from employment discrimination based on their national origin, regardless of their citizenship status.
Therefore, it is not just lawful United States citizens who are protected under Title VII, but all employees and applicants for employment, including, for example, lawful permanent residents, refugees, and individuals with work visas. This protection extends to both U.S. citizens and non-U.S. citizens working for an employer in the United States
