HUMAN RIGHTS

Human rights are a list of rules that should be followed to achieve worldwide peace and happiness. They were created in Paris the 10th of December of 1948 and there are 30 of them.

I decided to talk about the article 2, that says don't discriminate. These articles are all very important and useful to achieve a fair and peaceful world, but for me this one is one of the most relevant. Not following this article means violence against each other for being from a different country, religion and even gender. Is the main reason of the start of wars, terrorism, bullying, etc.

But, even though discrimination is still a thing nowadays, some people are trying to stop. For example, when it comes to bullying, there are appearing some organizations that helps people that is suffering from this kind of violence with making them tell their problem as soon as possible and trying to stop bullies to cause more damage. Also, this article is very controlled and followed in sports. For example, in football there are plenty of campaigns that supports respect between worlwide players and that gives an example of sportsmanship and respect between players from different races, ideologies, etc, to the youngest.

And unfortunately, we can relate the unfollowing of this article to the recent terrorist attacks that the world is suffering because they are attacking and murdering people just because they have different ideologies when it comes to religion.

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."
