Well, you can always look at the history of the US civil rights movement.

The 3/5 compromise, for example, allowed African American men to vote, but still created a strong bias against them.

Even after they gained the full right to vote, laws to protect their rights (and the rights of other people of color) simply didn't exist yet.

Businesses were allowed to discriminate in both who they hired and who they offered their services to without any sort of legal repercussions for an uncomfortably long period of time; which is why the movement persisted for so many decades.

Equal rights in a world where oppression and discrimination are the norm is a sort of jigsaw puzzle; many pieces both legal and social which have to be sorted out and put together before you can get the whole picture.
