Presentation transcript:

The 14 th Amendment was ratified in 1868 as a result of the Civil War/Reconstruction. Section 1 defines citizenship as all persons born or naturalized in the United States, as well as provides due process protections at the state level. We chose this topic because it crosses all middle school content areas. This amendment can be used in future lessons as background information.

AMENDMENT XIV Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. “14 th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution: Civil Rights (1866).” National Archives. (June 25, 2012). Sourcing: 1.Identify the document. 2.What is the author’s intention? Close Reading: 1.What words do you notice? 2.What is the intent of this document? Contextualization: 1.When would this amendment have been added? 2.This amendment would be in response to what events?

Adler, John. “A Man Knows a Man.” Harper Weekly. (June 25, 2012). Sourcing: 1.What is the author’s intention? 2.What judgments can we make about the author?
