            policy of racial integration leading to equal participation 
            and access to education, employment, transportation, 
            elections, and other aspects of public policy relating to 
            human rights; and these public policy changes influenced many 
            changes in California public policy.

            of the National Holiday for Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and
