Introduction. The Civil Rights Act of 1964, which ended segregation in public places and banned employment discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex or national origin, is considered one of the crowning legislative achievements of the civil rights movement.ead-up to the Civil Rights Act. Following the Civil War (1861-1865), a trio of constitutional amendments abolished slavery, made the former slaves citizens and gave all men the right to vote regardless of race.
The spark that started the modern Civil Rights movement occurred in December of 1955. Blacks were very tired of the discriminating, but what really set it off was the murder of Emmett Till. Rosa Parks, a black seamstress, refused to give up her seat on a bus to a white man, as Montgomery, Alabama law required.he civil  rights movement was also very organized. Strategies such as  sit-ins, bus boycotts, freedom rides, and marches were organized,  so many civil rights believers participated. Civil rights believers  were very passive, too, which was an effective strategy.
