The correct answer is A: The civil rights act. It outlawed
discrimination based on race, gender, color, religion, etc. This allowed
people who had previously been stuck on the fringes of society to
become better integrated, find better jobs and just generally be treated
more fairly, which allowed for greater social mobility.

The correct answer is actually B. The servicemen's readjustment act.
