Human rights are part of our every day life, but we don’t always notice. In fact, most take it for granted. Everyday people don’t usually notice, but our every step, move, and choice are because of human rights. Without these things, life as we know it would be just a memory. The 30 rights are more than just words on paper, although that is what they are. They are what get us through the day without being enslaved, tortured, spied on, or having our country turned to a dictatorship. They let us marry, divorce, learn, and have a freedom to express ourselves. Human rights lets you do things you might not be able to if the UN hadn’t come together to make the Universal Declaration. Human rights are the only thing that brings all humans together with a common law. Human rights are made of bans and freedoms, safety and protection, life and death.
Human rights are made of us.
