....the General Assembly of the United Nations adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, one of the greatest documents of the 20th century.
If you haven't seen it in the hardcover booklet that accompanied HTDAAB you can view the Declaration here:

We all know that the world is still a very unfair and injust place for millions of people on earth and that the U.N. itself has found itself stymied in its pursuit of the laudable goals of the Declaration, but instead of noting the drawbacks in its implementation, I offer the Declaration as an INSPIRATION to us of what our world CAN BE - if only we RECOMMIT OURSELVES TO THE REALIZATION OF ITS GOALS.
10 December - International Human Rights Day
and MUCH RESPECT TO U2 for including the Declaration in their booklet for HTDAAB.
