Do we still have to care about human rights now that Human Rights Day is over?

<p>Happy International Human Rights Day! (It was December 10 &mdash; we missed it because there&rsquo;s nothing &ldquo;human&rdquo; about human rights anymore, it seems).</p> <p>Meanwhile, I&rsquo;m choking on my own sarcasm. The irony of &ldquo;Human Rights Day&rdquo; is killing us. Yes, it&rsquo;s literally actually physically killing us.</p> <p>What did I expect, after decades in service of an ideal we&rsquo;ve never been able to attain. Maybe I&rsquo;ve been naive?</p> <p>And now living in a country that is the world&rsquo;s loudest human rights finger-pointer (growing fat on stolen land). Maybe I should have managed my expectations?</p> <p><a href="https://linaabirafeh.medium.com/do-we-still-have-to-care-about-human-rights-now-that-human-rights-day-is-over-a1c3943fbf24"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
