HUMAN RIGHTS

A must have for aspiring activists or anyone concerned with advancing human dignity and freedom, this book is told in a bold and straight forward graphic style that simply launches off the page. Beginning with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights which was passed by the United Nations General Assembly in 1948 and continuing on to the present day, Human Rights examines key figures and struggles in the march towards equality. From Soujourner Truth to Malala Yousafzai and including some earlier creators and defenders of rights from around the world and throughout history, we see how universal this need is. Whether social, political, religious or economic, the struggle is real, still costing countless lives and untold suffering to this day. Just examining some key issues like the fight against racism and LGBTIQ+ rights, we see how far there still is to go... Human Rights challenges us all against complacency while presenting valuable ideas on how we can all venture consciously into the future.
