I believe that there is a difference between human rights and civil rights, they are not the same in my opinion. Human rights are rightfully granted to a human being once she or he is born, on the other hand, civil rights are granted to an individual by the government that rules the society in which they are located or currently pertain to. There is a significant difference between the two, because human rights are lawfully provided to each human being by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Although in some cases these human rights are not allowed to be exercised by every individual whether it is because of their race, sex, or beliefs in which occasion the government of those certain states decide to rule them out, these are what we call our civil rights. This occurs because of the discrimination that, “Full-blooded Americans” have against certain groups of people, and believe that things should return to the way they were back in the days when Caucasian males had most of power in the country of the United States. These people are mostly Caucasian males of course, whom think that they were in this country before anyone else and that their ancestors own these lands first. Cough, Cough, Donald Trump Cough. They should not be considered different because if one is granted certain human rights once they are born, I do not think that it is right for a government system to take these rights away only because of what they believe to be true. These rights are set in place for a reason when we take our first breath and no one should be allowed to take another’s legitimate rights, at least not in the United States although it still occurs.

Hi my name is Kevin Erazo studying engineering here at California State Nothridge. I am a first year student and do not really like to read. I have read a few books in the past such as Survivor by Chuck Palahniuk assigned to me by Pofessor Kristin Kaz. I have started reading The Silence of the Lambs by Thomas Harris and I do enjoy it. I had a great first semester and hope to have an awesome second semester for my first year here at CSUN.
