Today marks the anniversary of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, a landmark law that outlawed discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. It was a hard won victory, born out of generations of protest, courage, and sacrifice. However, the very protections established by the Civil Rights Act are currently being gutted, challenged in courts, weakened by legislation, and ignored in practice. This anniversary is not just a moment to reflect; it is a call to action. We owe it to those who came before us, and to those coming after, to defend these rights and keep pushing for justice.
