HUMAN RIGHTS

 In this post I want to talk about human rights. For this, I tell you some information about this issue.

Human rights are the rights you have just for being a human.  Many of the basic ideas that animated the human rights movement developed in the aftermath of the Second World War. For that reason they were created in 1945 by the United Nations, that they were in New York city. I also say that there are 30 human rights. The modern human rights possibly are a reaction to slavery, torture, genocide and war crimes. Perhaps they began as a precondition for the possibility of a just society.  But the true precursor of human rights discourse was the concept of natural rights that appeared in the medieval age and continued in the American Revolution and the French Revolution.

Now I am going to talk about one article of human rights that I think it is one of the most important.  I choose the article 2 and it says the following sentence:

Article 2
 

Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status. Furthermore, no distinction shall be made on the basis of the political, jurisdictional or international status of the country or territory to which a person belongs, whether it be independent, trust, non-self-governing or under any other limitation of sovereignty.

 I pick out this article because in my opinion everybody has to be respected. It's doesn't matter the race, sex, colour or religion. All people are equal and have the right to be valued in our world.  I think if someone does something it's wrong and this person has a different religion or another thing, we encompass all people of this religions or race in one sack. This began to happened a long time ago. The extrem case has been the Hitler's Nazism in Germany around 1940/50 more or less.

I think this human right isn't respected in anywhere because, sadly, in the world there are a lot of people who consider that everybody have to be in the same way. However if I have to say one place I choose United Kingdom. On the contrary, this human right is violated in everywhere but I pick Arabian countries.

Vocabulary I don't understand: 

- Sovereignty: Sobirania

1. What are human rights?
2. When and why were they created?
3. How many human rights are there? Check out LIST OF HUMAN RIGHTS 
4. Which human right were you not familiar with? - EL QUE ESCOLLIM

Watch the video of the right you chose.  Make a list of new words you hear, if any. Think of an example where this human right is respected and where it is violated.
