The correct answer is: "The Civil Rights Act".

Although equality of rights for all US citizens had been already included in the US Constitution during the Reconstruction era, through the enactment of the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments in 1865, 1868 and 1870 respectively, such equality did not happen in practice until one century later, after the preassure exercised by the Civil Rights Movement, with the enactment of the Civil Rights Act.

The Civil Rights Act was enacted in 1964 forbids discrimination in terms of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. Moreover, these principles were translated into provisions that aimed to rule out such discrimination  also in the practice: eliminating requirements in order to access voting, banning segregation in schools, public facilities and employment. etc.

Heavy taxations imposed by the English Crown, rebellion acts such as the Boston Tea Party, wars such as the Revolutionary Wars, strategic alliances in World War 1 and II, but at the end, there is a tight bond that will always unite these two nations in a special kind of relationship that is reflected, for instance, in their trade relations.

What are some similarities and differences between the Magna Carta, Declaration of Independence, and Bill of Rights?
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Similarities:

-The two documents are popular in their countries of origin with the Magna Carta being popular in Britain and the Declaration being popular in the United States.

- The documents were both borne out of rebellion; the Magna Carta was first established after conflicts between the King and rebel barons and the Declaration was established after conflict between the thirteen American states and Great Britain.

-The two documents both sought to assert individual human freedoms and rights.

Differences:

- Where the Declaration confirms that power rests with the people, the Magna Carta asserted that power rests with the sovereign until changes through the Six Statutes sought to limit these powers.

- In the Magna Carta the rights of the people are granted by the government while in the Declaration, people's rights are God given. The Declaration was based on universal principles regarding all human beings but the Magna Carta was based on a particular group of people (barons) but which was later changed to the more inclusive term any freeman.
