    Extractions: Dictionaries: General Computing Medical Legal Encyclopedia Word: Word Starts with Ends with Definition While the term civil rights movement is often used to refer to the US civil rights movement The Civil rights movement in the United States has been a long, primarily nonviolent struggle to bring full civil rights and equality under the law to all Americans. It has been made up of many movements, though it is often used to refer to the struggles between 1945 and 1970 to end discrimination against African-Americans and to end racial segregation, especially in the U.S. South. Some of the other struggles, often but not always working together, include the women's liberation movement, the gay liberation movement, the disabled rights movement, and many socioeconomic class-based movements. The civil rights movement has had a tremendous and lasting impact on United States society, both in its tactics and in increased social and legal acceptance of civil rights.

    Extractions: INTERNATIONAL COMMISSION FOR HUMAN RIGHTS OBSERVATION EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS (translation by the Irish Mexico Group) After ordering and analysing the information gathered, the Commission notes that the human rights situation in the Mexican state of Chiapas is deteriorating gravely. The State of Chiapas is currently suffering the consequences of a situation of profound political upheaval and of worrying social breakdown. It is perceived that institutional structures at all levels are incapable of enforcing the rule of law, and that Chiapan society, and especially the indigenous communities, suffers the consequences of a general situation of violence and impunity. The factors which contribute in greatest measure to this situation are the following: 1. The intense militarization of the area. 2. The presence of paramilitary death squads. 3. The situation of generalized impunity. 4. The obstacles impeding recourse to justice.
