Definition and Importance of 14th Amendment Every person born in the USA is a citizen An immigrant can become a naturalized citizen Cannot keep a citizen from the pursuit of life, liberty, or property without due process Used to end segregation

Supreme Court 1956 Supreme Court decision Segregation on public buses ended 1964 Civil Rights Act Segregation illegal in all public places

Still Fighting for Rights Today Alondra Jones joined a lawsuit in 2000 Court decision changed funding of public schools in California Court decided California was not providing “equal protection” to students

In Conclusion The 14th Amendment was used as an argument to end segregation between white citizens and citizens of color. Even with the end of segregation people still have to fight for their rights, just like the Alondra Jones and other students in California. The US Constitution is made to protect the people of America. Today, we continue to fight for our rights.
