Answer:
Passed in 1964, the Civil Rights Act outlawed racial discrimination in public accommodations.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Civil Rights Act was passed to Congress as a civil rights bill by president John F. Kennedy in 1963 and was signed by president Lyndon Johnson in July 2, 1964.
The Civil Rights Act made racial segregation ilegal in any public accommodation. Restaurants, hotels, theaters and stores were among the public places that had denied the entrance of African Americans in the past, and the Civil Rights Act can be seen as a direct result of the civil rights movement that started in the 1950's as a protest to this and other forms of discrimination and inequality.
