>>> Human rights? That term is in the US Constitution?

yeah... as in right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

The question then was whether or not a black man was human, and therefore entitled to those same rights.

I cannot believe i’m hearing this stuff from fellow freepers.

Wrong document - that was the Declaration of Independence. The Constitution mentions no right to life, liberty or the pursuit of happiness (property).
