Ok - but that expired a long time ago, and the Civil Rights act was passed in 1964.
Is the complaint that we haven’t erased the slavery related stuff from the record?
What has this got to do with people being racist now?
- dragonwriter 6y ago> the Civil Rights act was passed in 1964. A Civil Rights Act was passed in 1964. Civil Rights Acts were also passed in 1866, 1871, 1875, 1957, 1960, 1968, and 1991. But the passage of a Civil Rights Act is not, in and of itself, an indication of the end of systemic racism.
- sanity31415 6y agoWhat evidence would prove that systemic racism doesn't exist?
- zepto 6y ago“But the passage of a Civil Rights Act is not, in and of itself, an indication of the end of systemic racism“ Systemic racism is rampant in every country I have lived in, the US included. But you are changing the subject. The question is about why it matters that it was once part of the constitution if it is no longer?
