The provisions of the Civil Rights Act of 1866 are extremely broad. Section 1981 protects the right of all persons to make and enforce contracts free from racial discrimination.

The act only covers racial discrimination, however, and section 1982 only protects United States Citizens.

Americans should be inspired by our own civil rights movement to support advocates struggling for individual rights today in the Middle East.
