[QUOTE="quadro, post: 743999, member: 12850"] Not in and of themselves. The word dignity isn't even in the Civil Rights Act. If you are Caucasian and I treat you with more respect and dignity than someone who is Hispanic, depending on the circumstances, that could be considered discrimination. That would fall under the Civil Rights Act but it's the discrimination that is at issue, not the dignity and respect per se. Civil Rights gave certain people the right to vote. Did that also bestow them dignity and respect? Absolutely but the issue was the right to vote, not dignity and respect. There is a legal right to join a union and it is outlined in the NLRA and the RLA but it's not a Civil Right. [/QUOTE]
