To accurately arrange the key events in the fight for Black American civil rights in chronological order, we need to consider the historical timeline of each event:

1. Executive Order 8802 (1941) - This order prohibited discrimination in war industries and allowed Black Americans to participate in the defense industry.

2. Double V Campaign (1942) - This campaign during World War II emphasized the fight for victory against fascism abroad and against racial discrimination at home.

3. Montgomery Bus Boycott (1955-1956) - This boycott was a response to racial segregation on public buses in Montgomery, Alabama, and aimed to end this practice.

4. March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom (1963) - This event brought together a large gathering advocating for economic and civil rights for Black Americans.

5. Civil Rights Act (1964) - This landmark legislation prohibited discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.

6. Voting Rights Act (1965) - This act was designed to enforce the voting rights guaranteed by the Fifteenth Amendment and aimed to eliminate various discriminatory voting practices.

Given this timeline, the table that accurately describes the events in chronological order is:
