Civil Liberties v Civil Rights

PowerPoint Presentation

Civil Liberties v. Civil Rights: Create a PowerPoint slide show explaining what Civil Liberties and Civil Rights are. Your
slide show should consist of 10-14 slides (not including a title slide and reference slide which you must have) and should
include, but not be limited to:

 Definition of civil liberties and discuss how these rights are protected on a federal and state level

 Definition of civil rights and discuss how these rights are protected on a federal and state level

 Two cases involving civil liberties taken up by the Supreme Court from 1800-2005

 Two cases involving civil rights taken up by the Supreme Court from 1800-2005

 One case involving civil liberties ruled on by the Supreme Court in the last 2 years

 One case involving civil rights ruled on by the Supreme Court in the last 2 years

 One leader of civil liberty causes
 One leader of civil rights causes (within the last 5 years)

 Two pictures

 Explanation of how each of these Supreme Court decisions have influenced minority groups, and the effects they
have had on the struggles for equal rights

 The status of equal rights today

You may include additional information you feel is relevant, but do not create more than 14 slides. Remember that you
must include a title slide and proper APA reference slide in addition to the 10-14 slides. Use your creativity, and organize
the material in a logical and understandable manner. Do not use the note portion of the slides; these will not be accessible
to faculty in the submitted document.
