The question I have had is: "Are these assignments mandatory?" Technically, no. However, the learning here is, in the bigger picture, required for you to be a functional adult who is aware of his/her own history. Make of that what you will.

Response: How has the Supreme Court of the United States applied the 14th Amendment toward the rights of the LGBTQ community?
I don't know if we do it in here or not but I'm gonna do it anyway. In the 1950's the Supreme court did not like LGBTQ at all. It was considered illegal just to gather in the same place of others of the same sexuality. The LGBTQ community then fought really hard all the way into the 1970's (Well, they didn't actually fight till around the 1960's) to gain there rights as actually citizens. The Supreme Court didn't treat them like humans at all more like complete animals. Not allowing them to hang around each other because it was against the wall. If people actually got up to fight against them or speak out the police raided their house and silenced them thus ruining their life all together. So, in less word's the Supreme Court didn't actually apply the 14th Amendment to the LGBTQ community till in the 2014. Which is quite depressing to think about.
