Book Description
The Constitution guarantees certain individual rights, such as the freedoms of religion and assembly and the protection from unlawful search and seizure. These civil liberties, however, are often undermined periods of emergency. Following an increasing number of upheavals throughout the country, including Hurricane Sandy, the unrest in Ferguson, Missouri, and the Ebola outbreak, there is a need to assess to what degree our civil liberties are protected in these circumstances. On the tenth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, this book examines the experiences of Katrina's "involuntary heroes," those whose civil liberties to no redress in the judicial system. It is essential reading for constitutional scholars and for members of the general public who truly want to understand constitutional rights within the context of this historic crisis. Book jacket.
