What do you see as the civil rights struggles of today

Protected civil rights in the U. S. include the right to vote, equality in public places, freedom from involuntary servitude, as well as freedom of press, assembly and speech. When a person's civil rights are hindered or denied because they belong to a specific class or group it is considered "discrimination."

Measures have been taken to protect people from discrimination due to race, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, age and gender. But often, these safeguards are disrespected. And there are other areas of discrimination that are as yet not protected by law.
