AP US Government
Unit 3 – Civil Liberties and Civil Rights
Topic 3.12
How might U.S history be different if the Civil Rights Act of 1964 had not passed?
There would be no impact on the country's legal system or societal structures.
Segregation and discrimination could've continued unchecked potentially leading to increased national tensions or even civil unrest.
Public opinion alone might have ended segregation promptly after its non-passage.
Other laws already in place would've fully addressed segregation and discrimination issues.
