Defining a “Civil Right”
ACLU and Transgender Rights The ACLU website states “The ACLU works in courts, legislatures, and communities to defend and preserve the individual rights and liberties that the Constitution and the laws of the United States guarantee everyone in this country.” Perhaps our problem is our definition of a “right”.
