From the publisher

A New York Public Library Best Book of the Year

Discover the truth about the Fourteenth Amendment, civil rights, and the United States' continued fight for equality in this singular nonfiction book for young readers.

The Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, known as the "equality amendment," was passed in the years after the Civil War to help protect the rights and freedoms of Black Americans. In the centuries that followed, the amendment grew to protect the rights of women, immigrants, and LGBTQ+ people as well.

But in recent years, the scope of the Fourteenth Amendment has shifted dramatically. A series of
landmark Supreme Court cases--ranging from abortion to affirmative action--have rolled back the amendment's guarantees and called into question its usefulness as a tool in the fight for equality. What does
the future hold for the Fourteenth?

Hana Bajramovic's Whose Right Is It? The Fourteenth Amendment and the Fight for Equality explores how one amendment to the Constitution shaped civil rights and liberties in America and became the focus for many of today's most important political debates. Featuring historical photos and informative graphics, this book shows a new generation of activists what the fight for equality across race, sexuality, gender, and citizenship might look like in the years to come.
