A quick definition of Civil Rights Act of 1964:

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 is a law that says people cannot be treated unfairly because of their race, skin color, where they come from, if they are a boy or girl, or what religion they follow. This law applies to things like getting a job, going to school, and using public places like restaurants and hotels. It is an important law that helps make sure everyone is treated fairly and equally.

A more thorough explanation:

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 is a law that makes it illegal to treat people unfairly because of their race, skin color, where they come from, gender, or religion. This law applies to many different parts of life, like jobs, schools, and public places like restaurants and hotels. The part of the law that deals with jobs is called "Title VII."

For example, if a restaurant owner refused to serve someone because of their skin color, that would be against the law. Or if a company didn't hire someone because they were a woman, that would also be against the law.

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 is important because it helps make sure that everyone is treated fairly and has the same opportunities, no matter what they look like or where they come from.
