Treating someone differently on the basis of race is illegal under civil rights laws.
Because it’s the racism we were trying to end, during the civil rights era.
I understand many modern racists try to change the meaning of “racism” to except their repugnant behavior.

Also, the Civil Rights Act was passed in a time of extreme racism (necessarily, otherwise the laws wouldn't have been needed), society has advanced substantially since then, as has our thinking about what racism is and how it affects society.
