History

President Kennedy was an advocate for civil rights and equality. He supported the civil rights movement and took steps to advance racial equality. He proposed the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which aimed to end racial segregation and discrimination in public places. Although he did not live to see its passage, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the act into law in 1964.
