This week we are learning about rights every human on earth deserves. Sadly in many countries these rights are taken away from them or not given to them. I learned a lot of different rights and some made me realize how lucky I am and to not take things for granted. Article 1 explains that All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. In many developing countries women are not treated fairly just because of their gender. In some places women are not considered equal to men. Another right is No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. There are any countries that allow this treatment to people. Some countries like Pakistan for example allow honorable death, where a father,uncle,or brother can kill a female family member for misbehaving or shaming them. Article 18 states, Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance. Also article 19 states Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers. In America we are allowed to speak ur mind. We are not punished for stating our opinions, some ban freedom of speech and people can be be punished for speaking their mind.
