Most of the changes in the law they wanted they got , but abolishing Jim crow laws on segregation did not bring it to an end. They had to bring court cases to get the laws enforced county by county across the South. There were counties in rural Virginia that continued to have segregated schools until the early 80's. The efforts to end housing segregation in the north met with little success. The housing convents that prevented blacks from living in "white" neighborhood are gone , but economic realities mean that most blacks still live in all black neighborhoods, and so attend all black schools. Though much progress has been made they have not achieved their goal of full equality.

it helped segregation end and helped blacks be able to use their rights more, like to vote(Freedom summer). It helped intergration in public schools and in other public places like parks, restaurants, etc. . .

I hope this helps
