VII Of Civil Rights Act Of 1964: Ethical Dilemma

I support the idea that women should not be forced to wear any foreign substance on their face. Research even suggests some makeup can be toxic, cause pregnancy problems and even cancer. States like California have a strict rule that demand companies to report cosmetics products sold within the state that contain ingredients known or suspected to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. The court decision would probably be different if the claim alleges that Harrah’s grooming policy would cause health hazards specific to women employees.

All it took for a teacher was inspiration, a vision, and a pen on paper. President Lyndon B. Johnson was an educator that took an unexpected turn to alter history. But through the course of his legacy, people ask, why did he sign the Civil Rights Act of 1964? He signed the bill for principle reasons because of the emotions from his past career, his bravery to sacrifice, and because of his personality and background (DOC A, C and E).

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 provides protection’s for woman who are pregnant. A woman cannot be fired because she is temporarily unable to perform her job duties due to pregnancy. A public school will have to treat this teacher as if she were temporarily disabled. The Family and Medical Leave Act states that the school can require the teacher to take unpaid leave. The school also has the legal obligation to give this teachers job upon her return. This however is minimum requirement by law. School districts or individual contracts may have additional benefits allowed to woman in this situation. The Civil Rights Act and The Family Medical Leave Act are the “floor”. These Federal Statutes apply to what they say they apply too. So

Hi Robert, Thank you for your post this week as it covered the pros and cons of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. One of the statements that you made about the 1960’s being harsh in the life of an African American reminded me of one of the rulings that had been achieved concerning education. In 1957, several African American students were approved to integrate with a high school located in Arkansas, only after the 1954 case of Brown vs. Board of Education had been battled and won within the court system (Schultz, 2013). This case stated that by having segregation between the white and black schools proved to be unequal. However, the white students did not make it easy on the new ones coming in and were said to have teased and tormented them.

When faced with pointing out the cons of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, one may feel there aren’t many if any. Or maybe that it’s a justified contradiction to the first amendment, which from the U.S. Constitution reads: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. The 1964 Civil Rights act is just one of the many problems that arise from the civil rights act. When the Civil Rights Act was passed it permitted voting rights, injunctive relief against discrimination in public places, of

Finally after extreme difficulties in the form of the president who introduced the bill being assassinated, the Southern Democrats repeated attempts to block, hinder, change, and filibuster the bill to death, the need to “reach across the aisle, and form coalitions, backroom deals, abnormalities in the way of the normal process in the Senate, even after the number of African American leaders assassinated, on July 2, 1964 the Civil Rights Act o 1964 was signed by President Lyndon B. Johnson thus concluding the long journey of this bill.

There are many controversial decisions that were made in the last 100 years in American history. One of the most important decisions made in my opinion was the decision to sign the Civil Rights Act of 1964 into law. In today's world, it would sound crazy to tell someone that they are not equal to the rest of society. Luckily, people today don't have to deal with laws that take away their individual rights and cause discrimination against them. African Americans were segregated in all aspects of society, such as going to segregated school districts and having segregated public places away from Caucasian people.Without the hundreds of boycotts, marches, protests and federal government enforcement to end racial inequality among people, we would not have the Civil Rights Act of 1964 today that allows African Americans the right to vote, citizenship, education equality, and the ability to share public places. Many people agreed on this becoming law, and others refused.

When it comes to court cases, every case that is heard in court is heard for one reason or another.

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 is considered by some to be one of the most important laws in American history. (The Most Important Cases, Speeches, Laws & Documents in American History) This Act was signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson on July 2, 1964 and it is a “comprehensive federal statute aimed at reducing discrimination in public accommodations and employment situations.” (Feuerbach Twomey, 2010) Specifically, it aimed at prohibiting “discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex (including pregnancy), and religion.” (Civil Rights Act of 1964, 2010) Additionally, it also

Ultimately, the banishment of discrimination in public areas pushed the issue of desegregation over the edge. Eisenhower facilitated the movement of multiple acts and orders ensuring the rights of minorities across the country, determining that they cannot legally be discriminated against. Eisenhower, in his Civil Rights Act of 1964, stated, “An Act to enforce the constitutional right to vote, to confer jurisdiction upon the district courts of the United States to provide injunctive relief against discrimination in public accommodations, to authorize the Attorney General to institute suits to protect constitutional rights in public facilities and public education, to extend the Commission on Civil Rights, to prevent discrimination in federally

We are all people, what separates one person’s sin from another? Who is to tell another, who they cannot love? Who is to judge a mother for feeding her child with her body? Who is to show disrespect to another because they want to be someone else? I believe this Bill will welcome more compassion for one another rather than hatred towards something unknown. The original Civil Rights Act of 1964 was to include sex, sexual orientation, and gender identity to all public accommodations. America needs laws in order for the government to stay in control, but times are changing. In which requires our laws to be more accommodating to the changes we are experiencing. A pending bill called H.R.3185 Equality Act has been introduced to Congress to bring

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 put a stop to public segregation and to the

"Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 is the single most important piece of legislation that has helped to shape and define employment law rights in this country (Bennett-Alexander & Hartman, 2001)". Title VII prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, age, gender, disability, religion and national origin. However, it was racial discrimination that was the moving force of the law that created a whirlwind of a variety of discriminations to be amended into Title VII. Title VII was a striving section of legislation, an effort which had never been tried which made the passage of the law an extremely uneasy task. This paper will discuss the evolution of Title VII as well as the impact Title VII has had in the workforce.

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 resulted from one of the most controversial House and Senate debates in history. It was also the biggest piece of civil rights legislation ever passed. The bill actually evolved from previous civil rights bills in the late 1950’s and early 1960’s. The bill passed through both houses finally on July 2, 1964 and was signed into law at 6:55 P.M. EST by President Lyndon Johnson. The act was originally drawn up in 1962 under President Kennedy before his assassination. The bill originated from two others, and one of which was the Equal Opportunity Act of 1962 that never went into law. This bill made up the core of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Bureau of National Affairs 18-20).
