Equal rights 04/02/2020

'' The most important aspect of citizenship, and what often separates citizens from non-citizens, is to provide for legal rights that are enforceable under the law, although non-citizens are entitled to legal rights as well. Rights, however, are more complex than may first appear. For example, the concept of rights can be broken down into different categories: civil, political, and social rights. This distinction was introduced by the sociologist Thomas H. Marshall, who also worked on drafting the United Nations' Declaration of Human Rights, with Eleanor Roosevelt, and others. '' 

The quote stood out to me because it enforces and stress the importance of having equal rights.  The constitutional guarantees of equal rights and the extent to which equal rights are realized indicate the level of democracy in a society and state system. The quote explains the expectations of everyone having rights.
