Brown v. Board of Education (1954): A historic Supreme Court case where the Court declared state laws establishing separate public schools for black and white students to be unconstitutional, overturning Plessy v. Ferguson. It was a major victory for the civil rights movement. Martin Luther King Jr. and Civil Disobedience: Martin Luther King Jr. was a civil rights leader who advocated for the use of nonviolent civil disobedience to protest racial discrimination. This approach was based on the idea that individuals have the right to disobey certain laws or government commands if they feel those laws are unjust. Sit-ins & Freedom Rides: Sit-ins were a form of protest used during the civil rights movement where individuals would occupy a space and refuse to leave as a form of peaceful protest. Freedom Rides were integrated bus trips through the American South in protest of segregated bus terminals. Civil Rights Act of 1964: This comprehensive civil rights legislation outlawed discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, ended segregation in public places, and banned employment discrimination. The Voting Rights Act of 1965: An essential piece of federal legislation that aimed to overcome legal barriers at the state and local levels that prevented African Americans from exercising their right to vote as guaranteed under the 15th Amendment. Equal Pay Act of 1963: A federal law that required that men and women be given equal pay for equal work in the same establishment. Its goal was to end the disparity in wages between genders. Open Housing Act of 1968: Also known as Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, it prohibited discrimination concerning the sale, rental, and financing of housing based on race, religion, national origin, and later, gender. Equal Employment Opportunity Act of 1972: An act that amended Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to increase the enforcement powers of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and further address workplace discrimination. Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990: A civil rights law that prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities in all areas of public life, including jobs, schools, transportation, and all public and private places that are open to the general public. It also requires employers to provide reasonable accommodations to employees with disabilities.
