Since the ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment in 1868, Americans have been guaranteed equal protection under the law. But these protections haven't always been inclusive.

In 2022, we saw the Supreme Court overturn Roe v. Wade-a decision made in 1973 that guaranteed abortion as a fundamental right. Other critical Supreme Court decisions regarding affirmative action, immigration, and LGBTQ+ rights have been hotly debated as culture has shifted over the last several years. With the Supreme Court's narrow interpretations of the "equality amendment"-disregarding what the drafters of the amendment said it was meant to do-the Fourteenth Amendment has shaped the conversation and legislation of civil rights and liberties in America for decades.

Hana Bajramovic's Whose Right Is It? The Fourteenth Amendment and the Fight for Equality explores how one amendment became the focus for many of today's most important constitutional debates. Featuring historical photos and informative graphics, this book shows a new generation of aspiring activists what the fight for equality across race, sexuality, gender, and citizenship looks like.
