Answer 1

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 contained provisions barring discrimination and segregation in education, public facilities, jobs, and housing

Step-by-step explanation:

The civil rights movement that happened during the 1960s was simply a struggle for social justice to enable black people in the US gain equal rights under the United States of America laws.

The movements led to the enactment of Civil Rights Act in June 1964. President John F. Kennedy was the sitting president at that time who sent the bill to the congress a year earlier. The Southern segregationist senators stalled the process and when president Kennedy was killed, Lyndon Baines took over and and ensured the bill was passed.

The act contained certain provisions that prohibits discrimination and segregation in education, public facilities, jobs, and housing. It made for Equal Employment Opportunity Commission creation which ensured fair hiring practices.
