So, what is the US government doing for racial discrimination? The government has passed many laws against racial discrimination. There are constitutional laws, civil rights laws, and state laws that provide protection for people who are racially discriminated.

However, over a period of time, many laws have been amended to take into consideration the changing scenarios. For example the Fourteenth Amendment of the US Constitution bans segregation in public schools based on race. In 1954, the US Supreme Court passed this law and asked all the public schools to immediately start the integration process. Then there is the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which prohibits discrimination based on race and other forms when it comes to employment, education and using public facilities. The Voting Rights Act of 1965 allows any citizen to cast their ballot irrespective of race or gender. The Fair Housing Act, which is a part of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, does not allow discrimination when it comes to selling or renting a house. And finally, the Civil Rights Act of 1991 took the step to ensure that all the previous civil rights laws are strengthened and improved.

However, none of the Civil Rights laws make racial discrimination by individuals illegal. But if this discrimination interferes with the rights of a person, then the Civil Rights laws offer the necessary protection.
