    The big picture

    Kudos to the whole team behind it. I saw a lot of movies and series treating single topics regarding the fight for equality in the U.S.A. But this series truly shows the overarching correlations. How the politics and narratives of the money making slavery business profoundly poisoned the society for over hundred of years. How the past echoes through people minds and keeps them trapped into toxic belief systems. This series is educational on so many levels. After viewing "Amend" I appreciate the first article of the human rights even more: "All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood."

    Thought provoking and emotive.

    Well worth a watch to learn a little about how the constitution shaped citizenship.

    I learned a lot

    I've been googling a lot of names, thanks to this documentary. I learned a lot as an European citizen. I understand the promise, but I miss the voice of the native American.

    Super Informative

    Very informative documentary on the creation and impact of the 14th Amendment. It dives into the civil war and post reconstruction America and how the 14th was not accepted everywhere and rules created to get around the 14th by using "States Rights" as an excuse. The doc covers the plight against black America, women, and LGBTQ+, in regards to the use of the 14th to grant them rights.

    How racism beat the constitution

    An in your face, no holds barred walkthrough in the many ways White Supremicist Americans chose to interpret the equality amendment to suit their needs at the time. Be it Black, Asian, Mexican or women, the scared little white men in power use word play to stay relevant and at the top of the financial tree!

    Some horrifying historical facts extrapolated for us by a myriad of actors, politicians, public figures and fighters of change demonstrating how the ages changed but the mentality did not! A sad reality of the American Nightmare, that the dream they sold was a scam!

    Intelligent, outspoken, truthful and heartfelt this is a must watch for the whole world!
