The Fourteenth Amendment, ratified in 1868, was significant to the civil rights movement because it guaranteed citizenship rights and equal protection under the law for all individuals born or naturalized in the United States. This legal foundation was crucial for challenging discriminatory laws and practices, as activists and lawyers invoked it to fight against segregation and disenfranchisement. The amendment laid the groundwork for landmark Supreme Court decisions, such as Brown v. Board of Education, which declared racial segregation in public schools unconstitutional. Overall, it provided a constitutional framework for advancing civil rights and promoting equality.
