On Aug. 28, 1963, a crowd of a quarter-million people came together on the National Mall with a shared purpose of striving for #socialjustice, the end of #segregation, #fairwages, economic #opportunities and the rights of full #citizenship. Many historians credit the march for pressuring the #Kennedy administration to act on #civilrights, eventually leading to the passage of the #CivilRightsAct in 1964 and the #VotingRightsAct of 1965. The momentous day concluded with #King delivering his iconic “#IHaveaDream” speech at the Lincoln Memorial.

#CoseDiScuola 59 anni fa #OnThisDay veniva votato negli #USA il #CivilRightsAct che vietava la segregazione di Stato. Le lotte dei neri aprirono la strada anche per i diritti di disabili, donne, anziani, #LGBTQ (che non si chiamavano ancora così), in pratica lottarono per tuttə. Il mondo giustamente (specie l'odiata #URSS) rideva della tragica farsa della discriminazione, oggi dobbiamo imparare e riprendere tutta quella consapevolezza e quei diritti. https://mastodon.social/@Deglassco/110651718166697733

June 19, 1964 - The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was approved after surviving an 83-day filibuster in the United States Senate. The new law, initiated and passed through the determination of President Lyndon Johnson and Senate Republican leader Everett Dirksen of Illinois, guaranteed for the first time equal access to public accommodations “without discrimination or segregation on the ground of race, color, religion, or national origin.”

“A federal judge ruled that a robocall operation led by 2 conspiracy theorists ahead of the #2020election violated Section 11(b) of the #VotingRightsAct , the #KuKluxKlanAct of 1870, the #CivilRightsAct & #NewYork civil rights laws. The right-wing activists sent over 85,000 robocalls to discourage voters in predominantly #Blackneighborhoods from #votingbymail in 2020.”
