July 2, 1964

it really depends on what you mean by ending.

if you mean "officially" in places like the workplace, it would be from the time of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 or in 1954 with the Supreme Court decision regarding education (which took a huge amount of time to begin implementation).

but look around. things really are a lot better than they have been in the past.

BUT we still too often "self-segregate" ourselves. look at our churches on Sunday mornings, or many of the neighborhoods we choose to live in.
