Human Rights Are Not The Preserve Of Western Activists: The Definition Must Extend To Encompass The Right To The Dignified Life; The Right To Send Your Kids To School, For That Child To Get Health Care, For Access For Greater Prosperity For Generations To Come And To Have A Say In The Destiny Of Your Community And Country.
