🎉 Celebrating the 60th Anniversary of the 1964 Civil Rights Act! 🎉 July marks a pivotal moment in history when President Lyndon B. Johnson signed legislation that ended segregation and banned discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. 🇺🇸 It's a testament to our nation's commitment to equality and justice. Let's honor this milestone by continuing to fight for a more inclusive society where everyone can pursue their dreams free from discrimination. Join us in commemorating this historic achievement and advancing inclusion, and opportunity for all. 🌟 #WRMSDC #CivilRightsAct60thAnniversary #Equality #Inclusion #Justice
