Immigration and Civil Liberties Presented by: Sandra Saravia & Christopher Pelch

Getting Started What are Civil Liberties? –Dictionary.com – “such a right as guaranteed by the laws of a country, as in the U.S. by the Bill of Rights.” –However, there is the idea of basic human rights, which citizens of the world are all equally entitled to. Consider this interesting difference as we move through our presentation.
