A Civil Right is an enforceable right or privilege established by state and federal law, which if interfered with by another person gives rise to an action for injury.
Examples of civil rights are: freedoms of speech, press, assembly, the right to vote, freedom from involuntary servitude, and the right to equality in public places.
Discrimination happens when the civil rights of a person are subverted or interfered with because of their membership in a particular group, religion, or class. Statutes have been enacted to prevent discrimination based on an individual's race, sex, religion, age, previous condition of servitude, physical limitation, national origin and in some instances, sexual preference.
The existence of civil rights and liberties are recognized internationally by numerous agreements and declarations. Often, these rights are included in agreements in which nations pledge themselves to the general protection of Human Rights.
Common cases involving Civil Rights and violations thereof, include:

Definition:
To use less than fully; below potential use. This term is often applied to categories of employees who are working at jobs that do not make full use of their skills and abilities, although they may have been hired for those skills and abilities. When an employee is consistently assigned to "dead end" jobs, he or she may be underutilized because they are often seen as able to perform only limited tasks.
Labor organization
