Explanation:

The 14th Amendment was significant to the civil right movement because it established that all people born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the U.S. (which included African American, the main group who had been suffering from discrimination for decades). It also granted them the equal protection of the laws and the right to due process, that is to say, the protection of a person's life, liberty, and property in any of the states of America.
