Title seven of the Civil Rights Act of 1964
The second probably is something like Affirmitive Action, but I don't know if there is a federal law about it.
United States. Affirmative action in the United States occurs in school admissions, job hiring, and government and corporate contracts. Its intended beneficiaries are disadvantaged ethnic minorities, women, people with disabilities, and veterans. Affirmative action has been the subject of numerous court cases, and has been contested on constitutional grounds. California, Michigan, and Washington have banned various forms of affirmative action by government organizations.

search "Title IX" which puts girls sports on equal footing with boys sports in schools for equality. As for diversity, that does not get as much legislation. maybe search for the laws that allow mennonites and the amish exemptions from the draft or from self employment taxes.

Do constitutional ammendments count? The 13th amendment banned slavery. The 14th gave all (male) citizens the right to vote. the 19th gave women the right to vote. the 26th gave all citizens 18 and older the right to vote.
