This was actually about the time that the parties started shifting. Since the equal right act had been passed, the GOP figured most of the important work had been done, so they moved on. The Democrats took a hard turn to the left and started rallying around affirmative action and hiring quotas. The GOP resisted these things, because they didn't see the logic in fighting racism with racism.
