On January 27th, we celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Kentucky Civil Rights Act.

Kentucky Governor Edward (Ned) T. Breathitt, Jr., signing the KY Civil Rights bill on January 27, 1966.​


This legislation made Kentucky the first state south of the Mason-Dixon Line to enact its own civil rights law, a bold move that distinguished the Commonwealth during a time of intense national struggle for racial equality. The Act was enforced by the Kentucky Commission on Human Rights (KCHR).​
