What was the impact of the civil rights act of 1964

1 answer:

5 0

With the passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, the federal government offered its immense power to the struggle to realize a more just and inclusive American society that had begun a century earlier with Reconstruction. But passage of the act was not the end of the story. The act did not fulfill all of the goals of civil rights activists. It would take further grassroots mobilization, judicial precedent, and legislative action to guarantee civil rights for African Americans.

Ok I need one paragraph for each and I need examples from the civil rights movement for each one listed below. Structural Condit

alexandr402 [8]

Structural conditions refer to the conditions of buildings in neighborhoods. Certain neighborhoods have better structural conditions than others and this affects prices of rent and generally the type of population occupying the area. There are certain neighborhoods where an apartment for rent are very cheap and people of a lower socioeconomic status generally live in the area. The structural conditions of these apartments are generally not as well kept and they have lower structural conditions. An example from the civil rights movement would be the fact that "black" neighborhoods had poor structural conditions and African American people were not allowed to occupy the houses with better structural conditions in predominantly "white" neighborhoods.

Structural strains refer to the stereotypes that one person may perceive certain things about their culture. This affects how they act and how they look at others around them. It can be a predictor on likelihood of committing a crime because the person may feel like that is what expected of them so they might as well do it. The person feels limited to what they know or have grown up with so they have trouble breaking stereotypical barriers placed on them early in life. An example of this in civil rights movement is how the children had to go to schools that had people only of their race. The opportunities at certain schools were limited solely based on race.

Generalized beliefs continues what I was talking about with structural strains. Generalized beliefs are beliefs that are expected or beliefs that the majority of a population has. This can affect people because certain groups of people are viewed better than others.

Precipitating factors are factors that trigger a behavioral response. This word can be used for many different circumstances. It can be used in regards to an illness or an accident. In civil rights time precipitating factors would be protests in response to the civil rights movement. It could also be a protest in response to how African Americans were being treated at the time.

Mobilization is the government making moves to gather the military and prepare them for a certain movement. During the civil rights movement an example of mobilization is when the National Guard was called in to help students as they started to attend schools that were predominantly white. They were called to make sure the peace was kept during this time.

Social control is the conformity of society to follow social norms because of laws or social pressure. During the civil rights movement children that went to school with their own race grew up with this being the norm. They were conforming because of the social pressure from family and friends. Once laws started changing, the law attempted to move social norms to integrate and the citizens were required to abide by the new laws. The laws regarding integrating schools were being enforced by the National Guard which is also an example of social control.
