Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Civil Rights Act of 1991 allows for monetary damages in cases of intentional employment discrimination. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, but did not originally include the possibility of monetary damages. The Emancipation Proclamation, issued by President Abraham Lincoln in 1863, declared that all slaves in Confederate states were to be set free but did not relate to employment discrimination. Title V of the Civil Rights Act of 1954 dealt with desegregation in schools, not employment discrimination.
