The significant legislation that emerged from the American Civil Rights Movement includes the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. The Civil Rights Act prohibited discrimination on the grounds of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, dismantling institutional segregation in schools, workplaces, and public facilities. The Voting Rights Act aimed to eliminate barriers to voting for African Americans, ensuring their access to the electoral process. Together, these legislative achievements played a vital role in advancing racial equality and reforming systemic injustices in American society.
