Let's start back in 1860 when the Republican party got Abraham Lincoln elected and were successful at abolishing slavery.

 

In 1872 it was the Republican party that fought for legislation allowing women the right to vote.

 

In 1964 the Republican party in congress had overwhelming support (more than the Democrats in congress) for the Civil Rights Act.

 

In 1965 the Republican party in congress had overwhelming support (more than the Democrats in congress) for the Voting Rights Act.

 

Those are the facts.
Interesting that you left of the southern strategy off your list. 

 

If the modern Republican part were still the same party ideologically as the one that elected Lincoln I would be one. So let's not pretend the parties are the same as they were then.
