Justice and Jurisprudence: An Inquiry Concerning the Constitutional Limitations of the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments is a book written by the Brotherhood of Liberty in 1889. The book delves into the constitutional limitations of the three amendments and explores the relationship between justice and jurisprudence. The Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments were added to the United States Constitution after the Civil War and were designed to protect the rights of African Americans. The Thirteenth Amendment abolished slavery, the Fourteenth Amendment granted equal protection under the law to all citizens, and the Fifteenth Amendment gave African American men the right to vote. The Brotherhood of Liberty, a group of African American lawyers and activists, examines the limitations of these amendments in the book. They argue that although the amendments were a step in the right direction, they do not go far enough in ensuring justice for African Americans. The book explores the ways in which the amendments have been interpreted and applied by the courts, and the impact of these interpretations on African Americans.The book also discusses the role of jurisprudence in shaping the interpretation of the Constitution. The Brotherhood of Liberty argues that the courts have a duty to interpret the Constitution in a way that upholds justice and protects the rights of all citizens, including African Americans. They call for a more expansive interpretation of the Constitution that takes into account the historical and social context in which it was written.Overall, Justice and Jurisprudence is a thought-provoking exploration of the constitutional limitations of the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments and the role of jurisprudence in shaping the interpretation of the Constitution. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of civil rights in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
