the major goal of the civil rights movement of the 1960’s was to

establish a separate political state for african americans

end segregation based on race
permit unlimited immigration to the united states

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  1. The Warren Court (1953-1969) issued landmark rulings like Miranda v. Arizona and Gideon v. Wainwright that expanded procedural rights for criminal defendants and broadened individual civil liberties, rather than reducing federal power, eliminating jury trials, or strengthening state courts over federal ones.
  2. The core goal of the 1960s U.S. civil rights movement was to dismantle legal racial segregation (upheld in Plessy v. Ferguson) through actions and legislation like the Civil Rights Act of 1964, not to form a separate state, pass a new equal rights amendment (this refers more to women's rights efforts), or change immigration policy.

Answer:

  1. They expanded the rights of individuals, especially criminal suspects
  2. end segregation based on race
