The supreme court studies the fourteenth amendment to determine

Since the 14th Amendment address citizenship rights and equal protection under the law, it would be intended for blacks in the late 1800s. The 14th Amendment was proposed in response to issues related to former slaves during the Civil War. I would have to say that the Supreme Court studies the 14th Amendment to determine which Human Rights Acts to pass and which to not pass, an example could be abortion. Another time the Supreme Court would have to use the 14th Amendment to determine something is if a person was not getting treated equally, since the 14th Amendment states equal rights and equal protection under the law.

Tldr: Human Rights and Equal Protection
