I observe these rights violated daily, and it seems to me that many have just become numb to it, or just ignorant to how and why they are being violated.
The Constitution is the law of the land and it doesn't get any higher than that. Public officials have somehow turned it into privileges and people don't exercise their protected rights often enough to know better. Policies don't override the constitution!

--- 1954: U.S. Supreme Court announced its unanimous decision in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, ruling racial segregation in public schools unconstitutional. The decision overturned the horrendous 1896 Supreme Court decision in Plessy v. Ferguson that stated “separate but equal” segregation was constitutional.

Rights getting violated left and right!! I feel very scared for my life when it comes to the police.

My 4th amendment right was violated my daughter’s mother apartment got raided by the nypd without a warrant and I also got arrested outside the building and now the case got dismissed I don’t know what to do I feel like I deserved some compensation for that and the police that went into my child’s mother apartment and now my daughter is traumatized. What’s the crime I committed?

My wife and I have been together since 2017 in 2019 we decided we wanted to try to have a baby. She would carry and it all happened way faster than we were expecting. We were scheduled to be married in march of 2020 then COVID happened and the city of Pittsburgh was effectively shut down. My son was born may 16 2020 we were legally married June 6 2020. We fell on a hard time in 2022 and asked her parents if our son could stay at there house while we got another place he was there less than a week before I was served a petition for emergency custody (which was granted by a westmoreland county judge) for two years I’ve had to battle just to see my son. Now they’re taking my rights to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, they’re trying to terminate my rights because my wife and I weren’t legally married until 3 weeks after he was born. I’ve paid attorneys the legal fees for just the custody battle I’ve paid to have supervised visits with my child even though I’ve never been found to be negligent, abusive or neglectful. Visits that I was granted over a year ago and had to file contempt just to get because my sister in law didn’t want me to have the visits in the first place My son is now with my sister in law in West Virginia hours away and she’s taking my rights to the Pennsylvania state court. Does anyone know anyone that can help me. I’m way out of my depth and now my SIL has an attorney that’s is so radically politically motivated that I’m terrified.

What happened to joseph rakes from Boston? He appeared in a 1970s photo with the American flag hitting a black lawyer during the Boston busing crisis… is he still alive? How does he currently look like?

Hi. New to Reddit.(yes I’m old.) I am looking for way to get a hold of Bobby Seale, the civil rights activist. My mother was a juror on his murder trial and I have a bunch of interesting artifacts from it, and I think he would love to see them. Any ideas on how to get a hold of him? I have tried Facebook and LinkedIn.

Donald Trump has repeatedly called for violence against anyone he considers political enemies. He asked allowed why immigrants couldn't be shot down like dogs at the border. He asked to have peaceful protestors in Washington, DC, to be fired upon, and he suggested shooting petty criminals down in the street. He encouraged the racist thugs in Charlottesville and on 1/6 and has suggested members of the military who refuse illegal orders be executed.

He planned to initiate the 'Insurrection Act', put troops on the street and outlaw all protests, and install curfews and prevent interstate travel of citizens.

And now a new thug has taken up the cudgel of authoritarianism. Sen, Tom cotton, of Arkansas, has called for mob rule in the streets. With no regard for the civil rights of American citizens he has called for the beating, disfigurement, and murder of protestors.

This is the government the GOP will install if elected. They admit they will murder and maim for any perceived indiscretion, and no one will be spared the rod -- not even fellow Republicans -- if you are not MAGA you are the enemy.

Aday after encouraging members of the public to “take matters into their own hands” to deal with peaceful protesters, Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) is doubling down on his endorsement of mob violence.

The Arkansas Republican shared a video on X on Tuesday morning of climate protesters who were blocking a road in France being grabbed and tossed on the side of the road by angry drivers. “How it should be done,” he captioned the video.

Cotton was apparently unfazed by backlash he received over comments made a day earlier, when he said protesters who blocked part of the Golden Gate Bridge would’ve been tossed off the bridge if it had happened in Arkansas.

“I encourage people who get stuck behind the pro Hamas mobs blocking traffic: take matters into your own hands to get them out of the way. It’s time to put an end to this nonsense,” he wrote on X about protesters criticizing the U.S. response to the Israel-Hamas war.

Cotton, who famously penned an op-ed in 2020 calling for troops to be deployed to crush nationwide protests, also suggested in comments to Fox News that protesters blocking the road should have their hands “glued … to a car or the pavement,” noting that it’d be “probably pretty painful to have their skin ripped off.”

MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough was among those to express disgust at Cotton’s comments, saying, “Here we have a guy, Tom Cotton, that went to Harvard, undergrad and law school, served in the military, who is talking about throwing people off the Golden Gate Bridge, ripping their skin off. We had a United States senator go on a network, national network, suggesting that Americans rip skin off of people’s hands because they’re aggravated and take matters into their own hands.”

While some commenters cheered Cotton’s latest endorsement of vigilante violence on, many others reminded him that what he’s pushing for is actually assault in the eyes of the law.

“Here’s a United States Senator, advocate of assault and battery. Nice Tom,” one person wrote.

--- 1968: President Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act of 1968. It expanded on previous laws and prohibited discrimination concerning the sale, rental, and financing of housing based on race, religion, national origin, sex, and family status. Title VIII of the Act is known as the Fair Housing Act (of 1968).

I'm wondering if there were any examples throughout the Civil Rights Movement where violent protest or something of that sort actually did achieve social reform. The majority of articles I come across only really talk about non-violence being the key to reform, but I haven't come across any articles that have actually recognized any violent protests that did do the movement good. What is your guy's take on the extent it did help and have you seen any articles that do talk about this?

Trump has grounds to sue the New York State Bar Association for failing to remove NY AG James from the Bar. She publicly committed civil discrimination against the Trump administration, calling it “TOO PALE, TOO MALE, AND TOO STALE.”

I found an open civil rights case online, but every website I click on wants me to pay in order to access the case document. Is there a government site you can search active cases?

I can identify Nelson Mandela in prison... but I need to be sure about the others. I think I see Malcom X and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr... but I am not sure.

Thank you!
