America acted. We overcame state-sponsored segregation, put in place by Democrats. Our civil rights laws were expanded to include equal opportunity in housing, voting, education, jobs, public accommodations, and much more.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_124040\" class=\"img_right\" align=\"right\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/MU.jpg\"\/><line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">So what were the Democrats supposedly trying to &#8220;overcome&#8221; last week?
