Called for more protections for African American voting rights.

The Civil Rights legislation of the 1960s (and its earlier drafts/discussions) focused on expanding legal protections against racial discrimination, including measures to secure voting rights for African Americans. The other choices are incorrect: the “Great Society” was Johnson’s broader program, and the acts were aimed at ending Jim Crow and segregation in public accommodations rather than preserving them.
