This site brings together two things you won't find together elsewhere: the history of the civil rights movement and information about your rights as a UK citizen today. We cover everything from the March on Washington to modern civil rights activism and where things stand now.
Your rights matter in everyday situations, whether it's privacy, dealing with police, fair treatment from traders, or workplace discrimination. This site explains what you're actually entitled to and how to enforce those rights when things go wrong.
