In the Civil Rights Cases of 1883, the Supreme Court struck down the Civil Rights Act of 1875, ruling that Congress did not have the authority to stop private discrimination. In what year did Congress finally find a way around this barrier?

1964

Explanation:

In 1883, the Civil Right Cases was held and it was ruled that Congress holds no power under the 14th Amendment to stop private discrimination. Even until 1960, it was possible for an employer to refuse hiring a woman, or a landlord had to power to not rent out his house to a black person. In 1964, Congress began to prohibit discrimination in private entities. The first was the prohibition of discrimination based on religion, national origin, or race in any activity that received financial assistance from the federal government.
