In your opinion what are 10 most important civil rights cases from 1900- present day. Such as Roe vs. Wade or Plessy Vs. Fergussion

Griswold v. Connecticut
Miranda v. Arizona
Roe v. Wade
Frontiero v. Richardson
Regents of University
of California v. Bakke
Bowers v. Hardwick

Answer 2

There is one I know about: Moore vs REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA 1990 The Supreme Court ruled that we do not own our bodies or our biological material. (some doctor patented Moore's DNA because he had a rare disease, making tons of $$, meanwhile charging Moore for many years of visits - Moore lost)

Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka - School desegregation. - Right to Equal Treatment

Roe vs. Wade - Right to Privacy - of course the Patriot ACT pretty much does away with our privacy!

August 26, 1920
The Nineteenth Amendment is ratified. - giving women the right to vote. (not a case, but important!)

Congress passed the first drug-related civil asset forfeiture law as part of the Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention and Control Act of 1970. The forfeiture provision, 21 USC § 881, authorized the government to seize and forfeit illicit drugs, manufacturing and storage equipment, and conveyances used to transport drugs. In 1978 and throughout the 1980s, Congress passed a number of “anti-drug” laws that expanded the government’s power to seize and forfeit property.4 Ostensibly aimed at attacking the proceeds of illicit drug traffickers, civil asset forfeiture has become a corrupting cash cow for law enforcement, and a serious threat to Americans’ constitutional rights.

Kelo et al v. City of New London - The Supreme Court ruled that Eminent Domain could be used for any commercial purpose - so if Wal-Mart wants to build a store where your house is; guess what? The government is on their side!

I'm sure there are many more, but where we have "won" some "rights" in the past, it is important to note how they are being taken away today!

Oh yeah! I forgot the one where they made the income tax legal - thereby taking away your right to not work for the government!

You can't let the government "give" you rights! Because what is given can always be taken away!
