9 juill. 1868 - Ratification of 14th amendment

Description:

Fourteenth amendment which granted any one born in the U.S citizenship. It states how “No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; “, yet there were still immigration laws set against the brown community, and even amendments that restricted the rights of foreign Latin countries. Sounds quite contradictory.
