Happy Human Rights Day

Sixty years ago today, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was ratified by the United Nations; let's all celebrate our freedoms and our rights and think about those who should – but do not – share these fundamental truths of human existence. For a cool view of the text, go to this youtube post... or this one. Here is the link to the official text.

For some "fun", check out this video presentation of The Clash's Know Your Rights... still as strong today as in 1983 when they last performed it together. And here's the immortal Bob Marley performing Get Up Stand Up [stand up for your rights].

Enjoy your rights... today and every day.
