CIVIL RIGHTS VS HUMAN RIGHTS

Reading the two articles on human rights and civil rights have made realize that their is a difference among these two.  It seemed like in the 60s civil rights meant more to all colored races than it did to whites.  They fought for their civil rights to be equal among everyone no matter your skin color.  Whites did not have to fight for these rights as much as they did.  It seems like civil rights go along the side of politics and one whole nation.  As for human rights I see it as humans who appear or are seen different by others fighting for their rights such as gays, muslims, blacks, etc.  There are still people who discriminate these sexualities, cultures and races.  I feel we should consider these rights different because when I think of civil rights I see it as colored races fighting for equality, but as for human rights I think of all different races, cultures, sexualities, etc being discriminated.
