MusicUNTOLD presented a FREE concert to celebrate the 150th anniversary
of 13th amendment to the US Constitution Abolition of Slavery on
November 21, 2015 at DAR Constitution Hall, Washington DC. MusicUNTOLD
is now planning a second concert at DAR Constitution Hall on July 8,
2018 to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the 14th amendment to the US
Constituion-CITIZENSHIP- “all
persons born or naturalized in the United States,” which included
former slaves recently freed. In addition, it forbids states from
denying any person "life, liberty or property, without due process of
law" or to "deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.” By directly mentioning the role of the states,
the 14th Amendment greatly expanded the protection of civil rights to
all Americans and is cited in more litigation than any other amendment.
Thanks
