Chapter 3 post

Chapter 3 post
Constitutional Amendments, There are two amendments mentioned in this chapter, the thirteenth and the fourteenth, from what I understand these amendments have implications for human resource management . From what I can see the thirteenth amendment was a life saver for the people who dealt with slavery, it is interesting to think of how much has changed ane may change in the years to come.
Secondly the fourteenth amendment another interesting topic I found as I was reading the chapte; as reads this amendment forbids the states from taking life , liberty ,or property without due process of law and prevent the states from denying equal protection of discrimination. I guess if any of you have any thoughts on these amendments it would be helpful for my understanding. In closing I want to give what I think is an example of the fourteenth amendment. If a person had been fired from a University or Government jobthey could file a claim under the fourteenth, however they would not have a case if they were fired by a private employer.
