Corporate personhood time line

This timeline traces the history of how corporations accumulated personhood rights, and how certain persons considered less than human gained equal protection under the law. It was compiled by Jan Edwards (who also developed the Tapestry of the Commons presentation and radio spots), with much help from Doug Hammerstrom, Bill Meyers, Molly Morgan, Mary
Zepernick, Virginia Rasmussen, Thomas Linzey, Jane Anne Morris, and Richard Grossman. This is the 2002 revision. It's also available on the Reclaiming Democracy site, and, with commentary, on WILPF's website.
