The Civil Rights Movement in the United States brought about significant changes in American society, particularly regarding racial equality and social justice. Activists fought against racial discrimination, segregation, and disenfranchisement, leading to the establishment of landmark legislation, such as the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. The movement raised public awareness of racial injustices and mobilized widespread support for equal rights. It transformed societal attitudes towards race and fostered a greater commitment to civil liberties, influencing subsequent movements for social justice, women's rights, and LGBTQ+ rights in the years that followed.
