CIVIL RIGHTS “Examples of civil rights are freedom of speech, press, and assembly; the right to vote; freedom from involuntary servitude; and the right to equality in public places.” quoted from Cornell University Law School’s Legal Information Institute (LII), online at http://topics.law.cornell.edu/wex/Civil_rights “A broad range of privileges and rights guaranteed by the United States Constitution and subsequent amendments and laws that guarantee fundamental freedoms to all individuals. These freedoms include the rights of free expression and action (civil liberties); the right to enter into contracts, own property, and initiate lawsuits; the rights of due process and equal protection of the laws; opportunities in education and work; the freedom to live, travel, and use public facilities wherever one chooses; and the right to participate in the democratic political system.” quoted from The American Heritage® New Dictionary of Cultural Literacy, Third Edition, online at http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/civil+rights
