A quick definition of public accommodation:

Public accommodation refers to businesses that provide services to the general public, such as hotels, restaurants, and entertainment venues. These businesses are required to serve all customers equally, regardless of their race, religion, or other personal characteristics. This is protected by the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which ensures that businesses cannot discriminate against customers based on certain characteristics. Essentially, public accommodation means that everyone should have access to the same services and opportunities, without discrimination.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A business or establishment that provides services, such as lodging, food, entertainment, or other services to the public. This includes businesses that affect interstate commerce or are supported by state action.

Examples: Hotels, restaurants, movie theaters, and amusement parks are all examples of public accommodations. These businesses are open to the public and must provide their services to anyone who meets their requirements, regardless of their race, gender, religion, or other protected characteristics.

Explanation: Public accommodations are places that are open to everyone and provide services to the public. This means that they cannot discriminate against people based on their race, gender, religion, or other protected characteristics. For example, a hotel cannot refuse to rent a room to someone because of their race, and a restaurant cannot refuse to serve someone because of their religion. These businesses must provide their services to everyone who meets their requirements, without discrimination.
