I witnessed the 1960's and America is not any better off today. Largely due to the fact that while Americans are screaming about their civil rights, they're standing on the necks of other Americans.

July 2, 1964 - U.S. President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 into law, thus barring discrimination in public accommodations (restaurants, stores, theatres, etc.), employment, and voting.
The law had survived an 83-day filibuster in the U.S. Senate by 21 members from southern states.
