Silence never won rights. They are not handed down from above; they are forced by pressures from below. ~Roger Baldwin
If the equality of individuals and the dignity of man be myths, they are myths to which the republic is committed. ~Howard Mumford Jones
Human Rights Day is celebrated on December 10, 2014. The date was chosen to honor the United Nations General Assembly’s adoption and proclamation on 10 December 1948, of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), the first global enunciation of human rights and one of the first major achievements of the new United Nations.
