The Civil Rights Act of 1875 guaranteed the rights of all citizens regardless of race accessibility to all public accommodations. It was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in 1883 because it violated states rights and the 14th amendment did not legalize desegregation but only the abolition of slavery.

I think all others are thinking of the 1965 act (14th amendment was then). The government made sure that slaves born on this land had citizenship rights around 1875. Of course it was in name only, Jim Crowe saw to that.
