Merger of Civil Rights Act of 1968 & Fair Housing
The Civil Rights Act (CRA) of 1968 was referred to by two other names.One, the Housing Rights Act of 1968 and the second, the Fair Housing Act. Actually, Title VIII of the CRA of 1968 contains the provisions for what is commonly referred to as the Fair Housing Act. For a brief survey of the history of the Fair Housing Act, see "Housing" From the U.S. Department of Justice.
- Fair housing encompasses more than the Title VIII of the CRA of 1968, so I can't see merging the two articles. Caerwine Caerwhine 01:01, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
I can see the FHA being a part of "Fair Housing." After all, it's an important component, and legal crystalization, of the concept. Saltyseaweed 00:18, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
Granted, this Civil Rights Act deals almost exclusively with fair housing, but it is also a key part of the civil rights movement in the 50s and 60s. I think this would be lost if it were merged. Better to just link to it. --FreeTheHeel 23:30, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
OPPOSE the merge idea; just link. Jon 20:21, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
Instead of merging this article and the Fair Housing article, how about merging this with the Indian Rights Act of 1968 and making this into an article only about the Fair Housing Act itself. The Indian Rights Act of 1968 IS the Civil Rights Act of 1968 with the exception of Title VIII, which is the Fair Housing Act. Zppdppd 6 April 2011

Minor point
Great article, but would it not be helpful to state explicitly at some point which country this refers to? Of course it's not hard to guess/work out from other clues on the page, but it might be good to clarify it for non-US readers. Melissza (talk) 13:01, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
