HUMAN RIGHTS
Human rights violations / discrimination takes place in
our communities every day. Too many of us have become
de-sensitized to these issues. Our challenge in becoming
responsible citizens of our country is to become better
informed, become proactive in raising awareness and to find
solutions to the problems around us.
