Seventh Amendment
In suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars,
the right of trial by jury shall be otherwise re-examined in any Court of the United
States, than according to the rules of common law.

This means that any person can demand a jury trial. If they are American, African American,
Spanish, Chinese, or any other race, they still have that right. For example, if a person
ows someone in your family money, and you suspect them, and have evidence that they
owe
him/her, the government can hold a trial. If their problem is very serious, it will be
re-examined.
My stamp commemorates amendment seven. It shows a courtroom with two people,
and a judge in the background. Both of them, and many, many other races all have the
right to demand a jury trial.
