Primary sources of civil rights law include the first ten amendments to the U.S. Constitution (the "Bill of Rights"), as well as a number of important pieces of federal legislation passed in recent decades. Constitutional rights are rights given or reserved to the people by the U.S. Constitution, and in particular, the Bill of Rights (first ten amendments). So, you can see the correlation.
