Civil rights, rights that a nation's inhabitants enjoy by law. The term is broader than “political rights,” which refer only to rights devolving from the franchise and are held usually only by a citizen, and unlike “natural rights,” civil rights have a legal as well as a philosophical basis. In the United States civil rights are usually thought of in terms of the specific rights guaranteed in the Constitution: freedom of religion, of speech, and of the press, and the rights to due process of law and to equal protection under the law.

I made sure that my children and grandchildren knew that freedom came with a price,a price that consisted of jails,water-hoses,threats,and murder.All I asked them todo is don't take for granted what you see today,because many gave their lives for what we know today as equal-rights.I am from that era.
