PUBLICATIONS Civil Rights and Japanese-American Internment Full Unit Published 2001 Grade Range: Secondary - Community College Pages: 189 pages Includes: Price: Add to cart Proceed to checkout Civil rights are the freedoms and rights that a person may have as a member of a given state or country. In the United States, these rights include freedom of speech, of the press, and of religion; and the rights to own property and to receive fair and equal treatment from government, other persons, and private groups. High school students have probably learned that a person's civil rights are protected by law and custom. The Constitution describes the basic rights of U.S. citizens. Courts of law decide whether a person's civil rights have been violated; courts of law also determine the limits of civil rights, so that people do not use their freedoms to violate the rights of others. Students are probably familiar with the African-American struggle for equal rights. They have probably studied amendments such as the 13th Amendment, adopted in 1865, which abolished slavery; the 14th Amendment, which in 1868 gave the former slaves citizenship; and the 15th Amendment, which became law in 1870 and prohibited states from denying people the right to vote because of their race. Students may also be familiar with Brown v. Board of Education in which the Supreme Court ruled segregation in public schools as unconstitutional. They may have been exposed to the civil rights acts of 1957, 1964, and 1968.

(AP) advertisement Civil rights groups aim to strengthen black-Hispanic ties By Brian DeBose THE WASHINGTON TIMES July 24, 2005 National black and Hispanic leaders say work must be done to improve their relations at the grass-roots level. Mr. Bond said that despite good working relationships at the "leadership level" between minority civil rights groups like the National Council of La Raza, League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC), the NAACP and others, "there must be more cooperation and understanding at the grass-roots level. That is where we are weak." "And Jesse Jackson is absolutely right: This is the future, and we either embrace the future or it will kick us out of the way, and he urged us to address this, and that is what we are going to do," Mr. Bond said. LULAC President Hector Flores agreed. "We do have some work to do," he said, but added that there are examples of black-Hispanic unity that can be learned from.

Rev. Graylan Hagler, who was active in the desegregation struggles in Boston and is currently president of Ministers for Racial, Social, and Economic Justice, understands the Northern variations of racism. He too is dismayed at claims that vouchers will advance the civil rights of African Americans. Norton is particularly galled by Republican Party tactics during the congressional debate last fall over a federal voucher program in Washington, D.C. Invoking Civil Rights Civil rights rhetoric is often promoted by conservatives such as columnist George Will and right-wing organizations such as the Heritage Foundation. Not everyone takes seriously their attempts to portray themselves as defenders of poor black children. But several prominent African Americans also support vouchers. Among them are former Democratic Rep. Floyd Flake of New York, former Baltimore mayor Kurt Schmoke, and Howard Fuller, former schools superintendent in Milwaukee. An education advisor to George W. Bush during his 2000 presidential campaign, Fuller is also chair of the Black Alliance for Educational Options (BAEO), founded in 2000 with strong backing from conservative foundations and philanthropists.

Documents WOLA's Drug Policy program monitors the impact of U.S. international drug control policy on democracy and human rights in Latin America. The United States has spent more than $25 billion to date on international drug control programs without achieving its goal of reducing the supply of cocaine and heroin entering the U.S. However, the escalation of the drug war has wrought varied but widespread, often profoundly damaging, consequences in the region, straining fragile democratic political systems and turning a blind eye to abusive tendencies in the region’s military and police forces. The “Drugs, Democracy and Human Rights” project, which began in 2001, examines the impact of the drug trade and U.S. international counternarcotics policy on human rights and the consolidation of democracy throughout Latin American and the Caribbean.

From the Paper: "Human Rights and Economics in Latin America Introduction In the late 1980s, U.S. General John R. Galvin, former commander-in-chief of the American Southern Command, commented that there was no strong basis for democracy in Latin America (Manwaring & Prisk, 1988). It was General Galvin's opinion that while every country is different and South America is not a homogenous unit or organization, the revolutions of Latin America in the struggle for independence were revolutions of a Spanish elite to free themselves from Spain in order that they could do whatever they wanted to do in running their governments. The neglect of indigenous people or for the vast majority of the poor and the campesinos that emerged during the struggles for independence has continued to the present day. As ..."

52. The Legal Status Of Rural Women In Nineteen Latin American Countries governments and societies to recognize not only women s civil rights but that civil law in several latinAmerican and Caribbean countries legally http://www.fao.org/DOCREP/U5615e/u5615e01.htm

Introduction Introduction Concern over women's subordination in law is not new. Beginning in the nineteenth century and continuing throughout the twentieth, the world has been witness to innumerable women's movements seeking to pressure governments and societies to recognize not only women's civil rights but that women should enjoy equal working conditions and wages with men. However, it was not until feminist movements gained recognition in the 'seventies and the United Nations' Women's Decade achieved significant advances, that it became possible to conduct a series of studies on rural Latin-American women. These studies show clearly and conclusively that women's contribution to the development process is much greater than previously assumed, and that women suffer from problems stemming from the traditional gender-based division of labour, which sees them exclusively taken up with their reproductive role as mother and homemaker. It was shown that the gender division of labour, not only determines rural women's workload, but influences as well the way their productive work is perceived, with the result that, on grounds of gender alone, their form of participation in society is different from that of men. This, in turn, has given rise to a number of customary and statutory rules that sanction the status quo and constitute a real obstacle to change.

In the tourist advertising booklets for political dummies, Cuba is just a forbidden Caribbean destination, full of sun and rum, with smiling mulatto girls dancing salsa on the beaches, and a little bit of exotic socialism to top it off Beyond this obvious stereotype, there is another layer of common simplifications and widespread beliefs about how the Cuban society works. The extreme conservative wing of the American media portrays the island as a ridiculous tropical version of the former Soviet communist inferno. The naive side of the liberal media has been presenting it as a social paradise, with free health care and education services for all As a Cuban, forced for years to deal with the political nonsense produced by the communist official propaganda apparatus, it has been always shocking to me that some sectors of progressive America still share similar schematic perspectives when looking at the Cuban issues. When considering, for example, that the US embargo is the source of poverty on the island, or that human rights are highly respected because the infant mortality rate is one of the lowest in the world, the "American Left" is not only simplifying the complex Cuban reality, it is also loosing an incredible opportunity to rearrange it's own political agenda, and to recycle the "Cuban experiment" in a more creative way
