Was JFK a strong supporter of civil rights for African Americans? Why or why not?

JFK was not a strong supporter of civil rights for African Americans because when he became president in 1961, African Americans throughout much of the South were denied the right to vote, barred from public facilities, subjected to insults and violence, and could not expect justice from the courts. In the North, black Americans also faced discrimination in housing, employment, education, and many other areas. But the civil rights movement had made important progress, and change was on the way.

sorry i do not know this

i think it was because of how protected egyptian civilization was was which allowed them to evolve without much outside influence.
