I'm all for anybody standing up for civil rights - even ones that aren't popular at a given point in time. However, there is no civil right to force any business to do anything, including let someone in, give them preferred pricing, or anything else.

I could be wrong, but I think the Civil Rights Act of 1964 does exactly that.

Yes, it does. 

Legislators like to think that they grant rights.  But, they're wrong.  Whether or not a law claims something is a right makes no difference, philosophically speaking.
