My father very openly credits the CRA with making him less racist— he doesn’t claim to be completely post-racial, though I think he is— because it meant that he, and other people like him, would have more contact in normal settings— work, school, etc— with blacks, and that contact and familiarity breeds, rather than contempt, tolerance.
