$500 ANSWER FROM CIVIL RIGHTS

It prohibited discrimination based on race, color, religion, and national origin in voting, education, and the use of public facilities. It is significant because for the first time, the federal government was able to enforce desegregation in almost all aspects of society.

It is important because if not for the Act, much of how we function as a society today would not be possible, and hate and bigotry would still be socially acceptable.

Messages sent between Washington and Moscow could take up to 7 hours to be delivered. In that time, one side could think the long delay was because the other side didn’t want to respond, and attacks could have been ordered. Both the U.S. and Soviet Union had forces ready to fight, so it was essential to have a quick form of communication to avoid misinterpretation and needless war.
