Congress finally passed limited Civil Rights Act in 1957 and 1960, but they offered only moderate gains. As a result of the act, the United states commission on Civil Rights was formed to investigate, report on and make recommendations to the president concerning civil rights issues. Sit ins, boycotts, freedom rides, and the founding of organizations such as the student nonviolent coordinating committee. ]]> 2016-05-25 14:46:55 UTC https://padlet.com/maddyoink/8586wpjkgfox/wish/112534265 "The court today completes the process of converting Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 from a guarantee that race or sex will not be the basis for often will" -Supreme Court Justice, Antontin Scalia ahansen01702 https://padlet.com/maddyoink/8586wpjkgfox/wish/112534711 2016-05-25 14:49:05 UTC https://padlet.com/maddyoink/8586wpjkgfox/wish/112534711 Why and how did this event lead to changes in the modern world? jjllehning https://padlet.com/maddyoink/8586wpjkgfox/wish/112535098 When this act was passed it brought a new start to America, attempting to stop the spread of racism and successfully doing so by banning segregation in public areas and employment.
