Civil Rights movement - African Americans (1950-ongoing)

Women's Rights Movement (1962-ongoing)
Immigrants Rights Movement (2000-ongoing)
The Labor Movement is a rights movement, for rights in the workplace. And it is a pro-democracy movement, so it could be included as a civil rights movement. (1870-ongoing)

aug 10, 1988, Pres. Reagan signed Civil Liberties Act of 1988. The act was pased by congress to provide a presidential apology and symbolic payment of $20,000.00 to the interness, evacuees and persons of Japanese ancestry who lost liberty or property because of discriminatroy action by the federal governement during WW2.
