President kennedy was unable to pass civil rights legislation. what were some of the factors that allowed president johnson to push civil rights forward after kennedy’s assassination?

Kennedy could not pass it because he didn't have the support of the congress who was mostly conservative at that time. When Johnson came, the tides shifted due to Kennedy's assassination and the general mistrust in the government and contempt for the Vietnam war, so it was easier for Johnson to get the support that he needed.

Not sure if it’s within 12 months, but you could talk about the spreading of alt-right hate speech and whether that is covered by the right of freedom of speech? or, cover how during the midterm elections in some states many native american populations were declined to vote because they didn’t have the proper id, despite being citizens? also, the death of that journalist last month, who spoke freely and reported about the saudi government and how corrupted it is and was killed because of that (lack of free press/speech). just some ideas for this prompt, i hope at least one of them : )
