In this photograph, President Johnson is signing the Civil Rights Act of 1964 with Dr. King one of its biggest supporters behind him. This act is one of the most important legislations during this time because it outlawed any unlawful treatment of minorities through voter registration and segregation in the workplace, school or in public.
It later became stronger in its enforcement which led to the election of minority officials in the Judiciary systems and in the US Government as a whole.
I believe that the civil rights act of 1964 is one of the greatest achievements by the United States lawmakers in the twenty century.I considere it(the civil right act) as the cornestone of our democratie because of it Condolezza Rice was the national security advisor and secretary of state during the Bush administration.Because of the civil rights act Stanley O’Neal was the chief executive officer of Merry lynch prior to the financial crisis.Because of the Civil rights act Oprah Winfrey becomes the talk show hostess the most famous in the United States and one the most powerful,influencial and richest woman on earth.
