Relationship Of Xenophobia Against Germans
Thank you for the explanation. I can see the relationship of "xenophobia" against Germans at the time, and currently the homosexual Community.
The relationship you were referring is now clear to me. The 14th amendment protects our basic rights, which in this case it specifically relates to parents right to teach their children in the language they wanted.
In our current time the gay community has been fighting equal protection under the law. The 14th amendment protects that right.
I think if the decision had been different, foreignness would not been welcome into this country, and any one that maybe be “threating” to the culture at the time would be discriminated. We would possible not have the melting pot that we have today, schools

    Compare And Contrast Lawrence Vs Texas

    Americans view the Constitution as the Holy Grail to guide our country and provide meaning of the law. It also gives a designation of powers to each branch and the states. Our essential freedoms are specified to us by the Constitution and have been stripped away from some individuals based on their sexual preference. In the Lawrence v. Texas case, it proves that the Supreme Court is continually re-interpreting the Constitution.…

    Case Summary: Brown vs. the Board of Education

The ruling essentially led the way for the civil rights movement and essentially integration across the United States. Although the case of Brown v. Board of Education has not solved all the racial and segregation problems in this country, it was a big step in the right direction.…

    Racism In Germany

    Before tackling the issue of racism in Germany or elsewhere, we first need to be aware of the term “racism” and its origins. According to Professor Marion Kaplan’s lecture, racism is a 15th century idea created following European observations of perceived biological markings. Racism denotes a hierarchy of superiority and inferiority based on factors such as gender, skin tone, and other biological characteristics. The word race stems from Arabic ras, which means beginning, origin, or head (Burleigh 23). Racism connotes external differences in people who are singled out and denigrated for their religion, physical appearance, or socioeconomic status. Racism began before WWII in Germany, but the way the Nazis carried out violence through racism,…

    With this historical evidence being put forth about the original intent of the 14th Amendment was found “inconclusive.” In the years to follow, the courts addressed the issue of desegregation. The NAACP wanted it to happen fast and the states warned of the violence if this process was completed too quickly. Even if the original writers of the Fourteenth Amendment did not want to prohibit segregation in education, they did want equal rights in public services. The experiences in the Twentieth century demonstrated the incompatibility of equality.…

    Physician Assisted Suicide Analysis

    As humans, we like to have options. We like to be in control. Physician-assisted suicide is meant to be an end-of-life option. It allows people with terminal illness to take control in how they die. In the United States physician assisted suicide is legal in only a small number of states (Oregon, Vermont, California and Washington). Oregon was the first state to pass the Death with Dignity Act in 1997, and since then other states have adopted the Act. Physician assisted suicide can easily be confused with euthanasia (which currently is illegal in all United States). The two are very different. Physician assisted suicide is “when a physician…

    The Importance Of The Fourteenth Amendment

    The Fourteenth Amendment was made in order to help all citizens of America make sure that they are not segregated, they are protected and treated fairly no matter of their race, sexuality, and gender. The Fourteenth Amendment is basically stating that any person born in the United States, no matter who the person is, no state is allowed to make or enforce a law that can deny the privileges of citizens of the United States. States can’t deny citizens of their rights or stop them from the privileges they have as citizens. All laws should protect every citizen equally. The amendment just didn’t stop people from taking away other citizens privileges.…

One of the more recent U.S. Supreme Court cases is that of Obergefell v. Hodges.

    Germans were feared by Americans

    Germans were feared by the public before World War 1. Crazy right? Knowing the historical past you may ask yourself what was Germany like prior to the war? We'll, Germany was basically a military state where the General Staff (the central 'brains' of the army) ruled and was responsible to the Emperor. It was not under political control. The country ranked first in iron and steel production, international trade, number of soldiers & equipment, and ship production. The top military sent out orders at the government which was expected to obey! The General Staff determined key areas of foreign policy.Before 1914 Germany was a big and prosperous country. (It was a little bigger than modern France, and over 50% bigger than modern Germany). The German states had a first rate education system, widely admired and imitated elsewhere throughout the world. The country even had a small scale welfare state (health service, old age pensions). The biggest problem was its under-developed machinery of governement.Germany's big weakness before 1914 was lack of democracy. It had a parliament but its powers were limited. It just didn't have the machinery of government that a modern industrial state needs. But, besides this issue, the public feared German-Americans. Due to Anti-German sentiment, which is a fear of Germany, was the fuel to this fire of fear of Germans. In the 1890s there was widespread hostility towards foreigners in Britain, mainly directed against eastern European Jews but also including Germans. Joseph Bannister believed that German residents in Britain were mostly "gambling-house keepers, hotel-porters, barbers, 'bullies', runaway conscripts, bath-attendants, street musicians, criminals, bakers, socialists, cheap clerks, etc". Interviewees for the Royal Commission on Alien Immigration believed that Germans were involved in prostitution and burglary. Many people viewed Germans working in Britain as threatening the livelihood of Britons by being willing to work for…

    The Rise Of Anti-Semitism In Nazi Germany

    Many stigmatic assumptions have been affiliated with Nazi Germany, warping the truth about what really transpired during the rise of the Third Reich. The public opinion of German residents towards the Jews in the early years was especially fabricated, with false rumors that the majority of the population already had a burning hatred towards the minorities, well before Hitler’s election. The development of modern anti-Semitism in Germany did not explode overnight, but was a delicate process. The newly appointed Chancellor, Adolf Hitler, took careful steps, in the form of discriminatory behavior and laws, that planted the seed of distrust and anti-Semitism in the German populous. Over the period of 1933 to 1939, with the domination of the Nazi…
