"All Persons Born or Naturalized in the United States…"
Looking for a way to tie the past to the present? Aren't we all? Bunk History has curated a whole bunch (to use a technical term) of news articles relating to the 14th Amendment. Bunk doesn't recommend an activity for these articles. But we've got some ideas. How about using their site as a choice board? Students can read an article that interests them and write about it or explain it to the class. Or the teacher can choose a handful (to use another technical term) of articles and groups can read these and then jigsaw.
