- However, civil rights activists were frequently subjected to violence and retaliation.
- As a result, the Voting Rights Act of 1965 was enacted, marking a significant success for the civil rights movement.
- As a result, today's US political system is democratic since everyone, regardless of skin colour or appearance, has the right to vote and participate in elections.
