Explanation:

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 aimed to end discrimination. It prohibited discrimination in public accommodations, which effectively ended public segregation. Poll taxes were ended by the 24th Amendment, and voter literacy tests were ended by the Voting Rights Act. The Civil Rights Act addressed racial discrimination more directly in public spaces, and while it had implications for gender discrimination over time, its primary and immediate accomplishment related to ending public segregation.
