I know this is controversial to even talk about that era or MLK in any way critical. But how is all of the legislation passed in that period any bit Constitutional?
The vast majority of the mid-60s civil rights legislation has been challenged ad nauseam on Constitutional bases. It is still standing after decades of near-continuous SCOTUS review.
Get a syllabus from your local community college. They probably have a one-semester course on the subject.
if you want to discuss one particular provision, that might be worthwhile.

One of the many reasons the Supreme Court is a retarded clown show.

It is unconstitutional but scotus wouldn’t dare strike it down due to public perception
It expires again in 2031 but will likely be extended, again

While you are correct because of the political distortion of our constitution thru the congress, executive, and SCOTUS. - that does not disallow a philosophical discussion of all the ills we have endured because of the erosion of our constitutional rights in honor of swamp corruption and other more nefarious causes.
Our founders would be totally ashamed of our state.
But hey - everything that Hitler did was LEGAL - as you might console the survivors of the concentration camps = "suck it up and deal with it."

Translation: “activist judges who think like me have been performing mental gyrations for decades in order to pretend like civil rights legislation is compatible with freedom of association.”
