Today is the 63rd anniversary of the ratification of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. If you've never read this amazing document, I highly recommend it. One of my heroes, Eleanor Roosevelt, was instrumental in the writing and passage of the UDHR. The UDHR has influenced the world for the better and allows universal human rights to be a common expectation if not the actual rule in countries around the world. I sometimes wonder if we would manage to pass it today.... Mary
